I can't believe I've never tried this project before. It was so easy and fun that I ended up doing it three times this week... first with my own kids, then as a project at my son's school, and then with our music class. I have a little bit of PTSD after working with lots and lots of squirrelly little 4 and 5 year olds.
In particular my own kids, who tend to just dump out all the paint, smear it all over their bodies, and then run away screaming. They can engage with art projects sometimes, but it's a delicate trick... figuring out what will draw them in. This project was perfect because the bottles are just so irresistible to squeeze that no one could deny their hypnotic powers. And the finished products all ended up looking really cool... not that that is necessarily necessary....

Another terrific and very simple science experience our children find interesting is what we call ‘walking water’. For this experiment all you need is paper towel, a couple of glasses and some water . We prefer to colour the water to make it easier for the children to see what is happening.
Fill one of the glasses with the water and raise it up higher than the other glass. Place a strip of paper towel from the top glass, ensuring it touches the bottom, down to the lower glass. Now watch what happens as the paper towel absorbs and syphons the water through the paper into the lower glass. It will take a little while … but eventually the entire glass of water will empty into the bottom glass.
Oh … and on the advice of our children, next time we won’t use yellow water. Free printable preschool worksheets to help prepare your child for school.
