12 Days of Quarantine: Day Five
You made it a whole week! It feels like months since we saw you last. Mamas, you did it. Pour a glass of bubbly and cheers to the weekend. You deserve it.
Welcome to day five!
A Lesson for the Kids:
I know that technically speaking, Saturdays means no school. I get it. But the kids aren't going to stop begging for entertainment just because it's the weekend. Trust me. Anybody up for a fun, outdoor, science experiment?
What you'll need:
- Water
- White vinegar (1 cup per eruption)
- Baking soda (6 Tbsp.)
- Dish soap (1 tsp.)
- Paint (washable is highly encouraged)
- Plastic cup
- Outdoor space with small rocks or dirt
What to do: Fill plastic cup ⅔ full with water. Add in paint, dish soap, and baking soda.
While you're mixing, let the kids build a "mountain" out of rocks or dirt. Once the mixture is ready to go, set the cup on top of the mountain. If you can, push it down to make it secure!
Give it one last stir and add in the vinegar. Stand back! It's eruption time!
Other things to try: For the older kids, check out these experiments!
