Matter Experiments 4 and 5

Today, we started by mixing water and food coloring. Watching the swirls of color mix was a big hit with the kiddos! Then, they were able to mix their two primary colors together. We had learned long ago that mixing non-primary colors can give you some strange results.

For experiment five, we tried to blend oil into the mix. It did not like mixing with the water. The children liked seeing how the oil drifted back to the top of the bag. More successful experiments!
