Baking Soda+Water

This winter has been a very, very

L.O.N.G.

one!

Snowstorms in April is just not okay!

So being that playing outside is pretty limited...

{you know,

because the snow is now so deep the kids can't even walk in it!}

We've been trying to get creative inside.

 On this day we made

vinegar and baking soda experiments.

This kept the kids so busy...

in the end we used

half a big jug of vinegar and a whole box of baking soda!

 We started out nice and clean with eye droppers...

they would carefully drop a little

coloured vinegar into a dish of baking soda

and watch the little

volcanoes.

 That soon evolved into dumping

cups full of vinegar into the baking soda

and watching big explosions...

And that soon evolved into

dumping handfuls of baking soda in their cupped hands

then I would pour vinegar on top...

a volcano in their hands!

 Nothing is fun unless you can get good and

messy!

And around here we seem to be messy

90% of the time!
