These were so easy and so rewarding because Liam did the entire thing himself and was ASTONISHED!!!
FIRST TRICK - MAKE THE PEPPER RUN!!
You'll Need:
- Pepper
- Milk
- Bowl
- Dish Soap
- Excited Kiddo - at least one!
Step one:
Pour the milkStep two:
Shake in a bunch of pepper....he liked this already!Step three:
Insert your index finger - NOTHING HAPPENSStep four:
While distracting your audience with some magic words and hand waving, dab a little soap on the index finger of the free hand (I put a few drops on the small lid beside the bowl).Dip your finger in and TA-DA! The pepper runs like boys from soap!
SECOND TRICK - MAKE COLORS RUN!!
- Milk
- Plate
- Paint
- Dish Soap
- Eager Kiddo
Step One:
Pour the Milk
Step two: Add the colors - food coloring or watercolors
Step three:
Admire your beautiful artwork!
Step four:
Add a drop or two of dish soapWait for the OOOOOs and AHHHs
Liam said,"OH WOW!!! THAT'S SO COOL!!"
And then......
added more soap - because if one drop was cool surely more would be AMAZING!!
Let me know if you do these tricks and what your kiddos think!
How cute! He looks like he was having a lot of fun doing these experiments :) My kids are grown, but I'll have to remember these for grandchildren along the way :)
