Re: can you get dry ice?!
Your local BOC will have it. It is about $11 a kilo, just take a little esky with you.
Just note that it wont last all day so best to pick it up just before you need it.

Re: STELR
Mine are kept in the original boxes. All the gear gets mixed up and put back in the wrong boxes as expected.
But I have a great physics teacher who gets his class to help me to sort everything out and put back in correct box at the end of the unit each year.

A couple of students rub the gel on their hands (glitter simulating germs) students go around the shaking hands with each other, and watch the glitter (germs) spread. Its even quite hard to remove...
