Volcano

Knowing we had a trip planned for February that included visiting a volcano, we needed to learn about them first. After many books and small experiments, we finally did the one every kid loves - making our own volcano.

Messy, sticky, FUN

It was cold outside and it's difficult to paint in heavy coats so we moved inside on this day.

Before we could actually use the volcano, we had to know what to put inside it. We experimented with multiple things settling on vinegar and baking soda. We also experimented with different amounts. Then we decided to add one other special ingredient.

Are you ready to see the results?
