I'm talking about free fun, with Food coloring.
Food coloring is a cheap and easy way to encourage learning,
creativity, cause and effect & colors.
Milky Masterpiece
Begin by pouring milk into a bowl
Then add in a few drops of food coloring. Below i had added red & blue right on top of each other. Next to the bowls are shot glasses filled with liquid dish soap, with straws.
OR, seen below, you can do drops around the bowl.
When you dip the soap covered straw into the milk, the food coloring separates into a colorful blended piece of art :)
Just a Mess
whats a nursing mother of 3 to do on a rainy day? Let the children play in the kitchen. (this kept them happy & silent for 1 hr). Place an empty container on floor, fill with flour, water, &baking soda. Mix well, then add drops of food coloring & hand spoons to children :)
Start off by putting baking soda in glasses & adding your choice of food coloring in each glass.
And allow kids to squirt into each cup :)
When all fizzled down, the chose to add food coloring to the water bottle and Omri pored baking soda in to that, for some added fun :)
FUN FROTH
Here i had filled capsules with a little baking soda & food coloring
when placed in a bowl of vinegar, and microwaved for 4 sec. it immediately foamed right up!
Pretty Pasta
Fill glass jars with 1/4 alcohol, your choice of dried pasta & 5-8 drops of food coloring
Shake well & let sit for 3 +hrs ( shake periodically)
Set aside on towels to dry for next day play :)
