We are looking for a new experiment which demonstrates Sublimation.

Not the one with Iodine

Any ideas?

Try Dry ice (CO2).

MichPull - thanks for that but we cant get dry ice unless we buy bulk.
hoping for something more handy and low in cost

Bindi,

Do you have a hospital near you? I ask because they may get their own order of dry ice in and be willing to let you have a couple of Kg (you will need 2kg min to last the day).

Alternative talk with your blood collection agencys (pathology collectors) as they use dry ice for storage of certain tests and may have extra you can use.

Hi All,

Sulfur would also be a candidate.
