I actually don't like the double slit experiment because it's so easy to confuse yourself. Good for learning the math, maybe, but bad for presenting the "weirdness." Tests of Bell's inequalities are much more interesting and IMO cut straight to the heart of the weirdness of QM. Likewise with tests of the quantum Zeno effect. For me, at least, these two experiments go straight to "okay fine, measurement is weird and let's just treat superposition as its own thing" while double slit experiments beg for hand waving mysticism.
