Potions
I came across this idea on a blog almost a year ago, and have been meaning to try it ever since.
Ian discovered pretty quickly that he could make music with his stirring stick . He was particularly excited because he was making music “just like the video“.
Micah didn’t get to help as much with this one. He did get a plastic jar of water, which he promptly dumped all over himself. So he got to ride in the swing while the bigger kids worked.
When we do it again, I would use less food coloring. It was so dark that it didn’t really work to blend colors very well – the red over powered the yellow when Ian tried to make orange, and the blue turned everything very dark. But the kids had a good time.
