Today the girls and I learned how to put out a flame with only gas. To do the experiment you need vinegar, baking soda, a bottle, a candle and a lighter.
We started by lighting the candle:
Then we put 5 tablespoons of vinegar into a bottle:
Then we measured out 1/2 tablespoon of baking soda and added that to the bottle with the vinegar:
See it fizz? Smile!
Next we placed the bottle opening near the flame of the candle
The gas from the reaction of vinegar and baking soda made the flame go out:
What science experiments have you all done lately? Post a link in the comment box for me:)
I am really trying to be more intentional in my interactions with the girls (especially Yahaira). They just want love and attention and at times I just want to do nothing. So I am making myself more of a "YES" mom than a "No, not right now" mom.
Yay science!
