Tuesday is Silly Science for the summer. The girls wanted to do a vinegar volcano. They never get tired of trying to figure out how to change the amounts to make it bigger. I now have no baking soda - so no cookies today. Oh well, they still had a ton of fun and didn't even miss the cookies.
1/4 cup vinegar
2 Tbsp baking soda
optional - food coloring or jello
There are fancy ways to make it look like a volcano but the girls just want the eruption part so we skipped all of that this time.
Pour 1/4 cup vinegar into a paper cup. Put the paper cup in the bottom of a big bowl. (If you are using food coloring add it to the vinegar now - if you are using dry Jello add a tsp to the baking soda now) Pour the baking soda into the vinegar. Eruption time!
