Make Your Own Solar Oven

I’m a little sad that all the fun and fascinating science experiments are coming to an end…this is the very last one!  I hope you have enjoyed this series as much as we have!

This last “experiment” will be lots of fun to try this summer…make your own s’mores or even melt cheese on top of individual-sized pizzas!

Here’s what you’ll need:  a pizza box, aluminum foil, box cutter (or knife), permanent marker, ruler, Elmer’s glue, plastic cling wrap, black construction paper, and tape.

I took step-by-step photos of the process, but then I decided it would be much easier to share this video with you instead as there are several steps…

 

 

My friend Stacie over at Motherhood on a Dime also shares a simpler solar s’mores snack.

  1. Perfect project to go with the Curious George episode where the power goes out and he cooks lasagne in a solar oven. S’mores are much more realistic. Thanks for all your ideas.

  2. My family and I are planing to go camping, this is a great idea!!! Safer way then having a campfire to do smores!!!

  3. What a great idea! I’m going to try this with my grandsons. I think they’ll love it! Renee

  4. This is great! One of our favorite episodes of Curious George has George making the same thing to cook a lasagne!

  5. This is awesome. It looks so hard, but I’m glad it worked for you. Maybe we’ll try this one weekend after we order pizza.
