Make A Volcano
What you will need:
Modeling Clay, Vinegar, Red Food Coloring, and Baking Soda for the volcano. To avoid a mess lots of newspaper and maybe even a vinyl tablecloth and/or poster board under the clay. The vinegar and food coloring mixture will create lots of liquid at the bottom of your volcano as it "erupts."
Step 1. Make your own unique volcano design and form a cup at the top of the volcano to hold your vinegar liquid. Pour the vinegar, and several drop of red food coloring until you see the mixture begin to drip from the top of the volcano.
Step 2. Next take a plastic spoon and scoop a huge spoonful baking powder into the top of your volcano.
Step 3. The mixture will begin to blend together and form a chemical
reaction. You will see the volcano
"erupting" down your clay volcano.
Step 4. Allow it to continue to drip and watch the fun. You can pick up your entire volcano mess when you are finished and toss it in the trash or drain some of the color in your sink (be sure to wash all traces of the red food coloring from your sink) and let the volcano air dry for later use.
Optional: Embellish the area around your volcano with greenery or a paintings.
You can also place the baking soda and food coloring first and then the vinegar. Try it both ways.
