Fun with Chemistry

Today we decided to have a little fun with some chemistry, namely baking soda and vinegar.

It’s pretty simple.  I filled a baking pan with baking soda.

I put some vinegar in a muffin tin and added some food coloring.  The girls requested red and blue.

I used an old medicine dropper to draw up the vinegar.  If you have older kids, they might be able to do it themselves, but I went ahead and did it for them to minimize mess and arguments.  Next time we finish a bottle of baby tylenol, I’m totally saving the little bulb syringe so they can do it themselves.

They thought it was super cool and they were great about taking turns.  I think we’ll be adding this into our project rotation.  🙂

Edited to Add:  I totally thought it was Monday as I was writing this.  Sorry it’s a day late!
