Mad Science Social

These are samples of Facebook and Instagram posts that I created for the Mad Science Group’s family friendly educational brand.

I was in charge of concept creation, creative direction and copywriting, following company style guidelines. The idea behind the content is to provide parents, educators and students with fun yet educational information on science topics.

Did you know that for many turtle species a hatchling’s gender is determined by the temperature of its nest? Some turtle species have male hatchlings from eggs incubated at lower temperatures, while others have females hatching from eggs incubated at the temperature extremes in the nest. Just one of many things that make turtles so amazing that we celebrate them on #WorldTurtleDay!

Gardening can be a fantastic outdoor science class! Try germinating seeds or planting some seedlings. From gardening, kids can learn about photosynthesis, the chemistry of soil and pollination. In fact, many life science, math, biology and chemistry concepts can be explored through caring for plants!

What are the odds that you are looking at a habitable planet when you look out into the Milky Way at night?  Estimates suggest that there are at least 6 billion habitable planets in the Milky Way! Something to think about on #InternationalAstronomyDay.

If elephants could talk human languages, they could probably teach us many things. Scientific studies have suggested that elephants may have superior memories and learning functions to humans. This is because elephant brains are larger and contain larger numbers of neurons than those of humans. So here’s to the mighty elephant on #SavetheElephantDay!
