Snow day science Fun

Snow day: Day 2, calls for some creative mom time. We enjoy doing science experiments and it's been too long.

Experiment #1:

This is the vinegar, baking soda and colors experiment.

They love watching them fizz up and react.

I love Levi's tongue of concentration look.

Experiment #2:

Pour some milk on a plate. Drop on some food coloring. Dip a cotton ball in dish soap and swirl with the contents on the plate. Watch the magic!

Experiment #3:

Secret messages with lemon juice. As the lemon juice dries, it turns brown and the message is revealed. taa daahhh!
