Forever and a day ago someone posted a link to a periodic table that a kid had made. They used actual items for the element or pictures. I remember for silver there was a little silver piece of jewlery for oxygen there was a little oxygen tank, may have been a toy...Does anyone remember this or anything remotely like it?

I don't remember that thread, but both of the books "The Elements" and "Picturepedia" have periodic tables with photos of items made of or representing each element.

This isn't what you asked for at all, but I saw this awhile ago and though it was so cool. If you're working on the periodic table, it might be fun. :)

After the last thread where that game was posted I printed/laminated a set and we have played it numerous times since. It is really fun and we have learned quite a few of the elements. We get out the books I mentioned upthread and discuss the elements that formed our sunk ships. Someone always makes an "Unun" boat (ununseptium, ununoctium for example) so we now have a family joke about temporary boats.

 

Yes, we are so cool that we have periodic table jokes. :cool:
