Last week we played with vinegar and baking soda. The two combined form the gas carbon dioxide which will blow up a balloon attached to a water bottle or erupt out of a glass like a volcano. Trystan loved it!!! Taylee loved the balloons and was pretty patient while Trystan and I were experimenting.
Trystan blew up one balloon and we compared the difference between the balloons blown up with our air versus the balloons blown up by the baking soda and carbon dioxide. The balloon Trystan blew up was a lot squishier than the others.
I put the baking soda in all of the balloons before we started a funnel was the easiest way of getting the baking soda into the balloons.
Filling up the first balloon. Love the expression on their faces.
As a side note with every balloon you fill up you have to change the vinegar. It only takes a little bit of vinegar and the more baking soda you add the more it fizzes.
Love this sweet little girl. She had a blast with the balloons.
Trystan decided to take our fun outside and see what would happen if we mixed the two in an open cup.
This was his volcano and Taylee loved the fiz. He was disappointed that it didn't blow his guy out the top.
