Coloured vinegar Vs Bi-carb soda

Tara is taking a liking to anything science and always asking to make the dinosaur volcano's that we made some time ago. http://homelearningfrombirth.blogspot.com.au/2011/04/volcano-dino-land.html
The following activity is a little less messy and great for a rainy day.
Pour a layer of bi-carb soda onto a tray. Fill up a glass or (a few if you want more variety) of vinegar and drop in your favourite food colouring. Use a dropper to transfer the coloured vinegar onto the bi-carb tray and watch the science take place!

  2. Simple isnt it Amber? And after we had finished we put the leftovers in the shower to clean it up. Vinegar and bi-carb are fantastic shower cleaners, just make sure your coloured water is not too strong in colour, only need one drop!
