M&L Do Science Experiments

So one of the coolest gifts the kids received for Christmas was an experiments book. They tended to do random experiments using our expensive shampoos and creams (without permission), so I am glad that they now have a more structured inexpensive outlet for their creative minds.



Today's 1st experiment involved jello, a peppermint and some soda. Unfortunately, it was a dud and completely fizzled, but not in a good way.



Fortunately, the experiment was good enough to eat




The second experiment worked out much better and was a lot simpler. It was to make Goop - simple - water, corn starch and food coloring



And voila! Happy Times!






A little commentary on the experiment




Of course this is what was left of my countertop, but it was all in the name of science so I have to support it.
