Our Colors Week - A Fizzy Time




I was trying to find a fun science project to go along with our colors theme and came across this post on In Lieu of Preschool. We found a bunch of different containers and filled half with water and the other half with vinegar, then I let Ava put food coloring in each one (I'm pretty sure that was her favorite part). Then the fun began - adding baking soda!

Ava was really good at guessing which ones would fizz (the ones with vinegar) and which ones wouldn't (the ones with water). Then she had fun mixing the colors together; we talked about primary and secondary colors - and then she just mixed all of them together until they were all the same shade of brown!

Any ideas for any other color themed science projects?
