Someone told me a fun idea where you squeeze an eye dropper full of vinegar onto a pan spread with baking soda. Guess what happens? You're right! You get some great fizzing action. And if you add food coloring to the vinegar, the fun really begins.
What a great summer boredom buster. I bought some eye droppers at the grocery store (two to a package for 99 cents) to send to my grandchildren. But when I asked the pharmacist where the eye droppers were located, she said she could give me a bunch of syringes for free. What a deal! Now I'm sending both eye droppers and syringes to my grandchildren with a copy of cool science experiments they can do with their droppers/syringes.
Here's some of the eye dropper science experiments I found online:
1. Do hot water molecules move faster than cold ones?
2. Mixing colors with eye droppers
3. Pictures of the vinegar/baking soda experiment
4. Pennies and water with eye droppers
5. Water drop fun
6. Liquids in motion
7. More color experiments
8. Marshmallow/syringe experiment
Have fun experimenting this summer!
Thanks for reading,
Cathy

As one of the daughter in laws to receive this package...may I just say that you need to be prepared to have a messy kitchen...but happy kids :) They LOVED playing with the syringes and doing the experiments! They are 8, 7, 4.
