Rainbows


 Aliza learned about clouds and rainbows today and they did this experiment. I was exclaiming right along with the children!

Put some milk in a small dish. Add 3 drops of red, blue and yellow food coloring. Put a couple drops of liquid dish soap in the middle.

The dish soap pushes the color to the edge and causes the colors to start spreading out.
It takes a few minutes, but the colors mix and you can see every color in the rainbow.
Our bowl got sloshed around a bit so I didn't get a good end picture before it was mostly black. It was super neat, though, and easy to do!

Yay for learning!
