Supplies for Baking Soda and Vinegar Experiment

 Baking Soda
 Vinegar
 Syringes (or eye droppers)
 Food coloring

The only “hard” part about this baking soda and vinegar experiment is mixing the colors.
Here’s exactly how we dyed the baking soda:

1. Scoop 4 BIG spoonfuls of baking soda into a bowl

2. Add 2-3 drops (or more if you’d like) of food coloring
3. Pour a small amount of water into the bowl (like a teaspoon or two)
4. MIX 

Note: I added a drop of food coloring to the water to help brighten the color of the
baking soda!

There will be little clumps of baking soda from the moisture, but the baking soda shouldn’t
be wet.

We dyed the baking soda each color in the rainbow and set the colors side by side in a baking
pan

Then, I put out a jar of vinegar with some syringes for my three-year-old to experiment and
to play!

Popping the bubbles was my preschooler’s favorite part!  But, my favorite part was taking the
jar of vinegar and pouring it along the entire rainbow!! What’s better than a bubbling
rainbow?!  Well, it might be the sounds of sheer delight when my three-year-old watched this
baking soda and vinegar experiment come to life!!

Don’t you think it looks gorgeous??
