It's Gardner Science Time

So this week we did this REALLY neat volcano project! It was in Emma's science book for this week. The kids enjoyed this project so much that we might be making another one in the near future! For this we made our own "clay dough" which I got off the internet. 

We put a bottle in the middle to hold the baking soda for the "explosion" and added vinegar to make it explode. We took food coloring and made the land and the ocean. It wouldn't have been a complete volcano without men running for their lives, so we added G.I. Joe's which Ethan thought was a great touch. 

Here are 2 video's of our "Great Explosion"

Tim got a little carried away with the baking soda.... But it was worth it! The kids enjoyed it!!
