Today we went to our favorite indoor playground
for science class and to meet up with a fellow homeschooler.
Teacher Becky's lesson of the day was volcanoes.
The activity started with the kids building their own volcanoes using a water bottle, sticky paper, scrap paper, and yellow pieces of tape.

| Adding "lava" |
 |
| ready! |
After they were done, the fun really started.
 |
| A couple of tablespoons of baking soda |
|
|
| |
| Making sure it's all in there |
|
|
|
|
 |
| the secret ingredient (Dawn dish washing soap) |
|
|
|
 |
| Vinegar dyed green for visual effects |
|
 |
| and voila! | | | | |
|
|
Finally the Picture of the Day
 |
| Priceless! |
This was a really fun science project and I'm sure we'll be making many more volcanoes.
