We are NOT bored!- Milk Colors

Ok, this is our first: I saw it on Pinterest and I tried!!!

This come from Modern Parents Messy Kids. It is such a great blog with lots of fun activities to try with your kiddo.

• You’ll need:
  • milk (we used 2%)
  • food coloring
  • dish soap (we used Dawn)
  • toothpick 
  • lid

 

• Instructions:
  • Pour milk into the lid.
  • Add a few color drops of food coloring
  • Dip the toothpick into the dish soap.
  • Put the toothpick into the milk.
  • Watch how the colors radiate away from the toothpick.

 

As you can see, it was really fun!!!
