Now families,
It doesn’t take a lot of money to have a lot of fun. Some of the best tunes are makeshift creations that are meant to entertain. Surely, this colorful creation lives up to its hype.
Materials:
food coloring
Paper towels
Water
Clear jars (6)
This is also a great experiment because children can help right from the get go.
Steps:
fill 3 jars with 3/4 of water
Add red, blue, and yellow to the jars. (Different food coloring in each jar)
Put all 6 jars in a circle. Alternate- each jar filled with water is next to an empty jar
Make a guess! What will happen next? How do they know?
Take six paper towels. Fold each paper towel and a half and then in half again so you have created a long strip. Then dip each paper towels drip into one of the colors and the connecting empty jar.
Observe!!! Watch as a rainbow is created!
Great job. How close were the predictions this time. We may not be able to taste the rainbow here, but we still brought home a little sunshine! Sincerely, A Tip Filled Teacher
