| I forgot! |
So, last Master Plan Monday, I mentioned that I would share the color bottle craft from when I was in kindergarten.
I had the coolest teacher, and she would make bottles with all of the secondary colors, but since we're having Pad Thai for dinner tonight, and I need to get more oil tomorrow, I only did green.
What you'll need
1 Empty Bottle
Water
Oil
McCormick Food Coloring
Oil Based food coloring (we got ours at Michaels with the candy making supplies)
Tape
Fill the bottle halfway with water. Add five to seven drops of food coloring. In a separate container mix oil (we used a water bottle, so I knew that the amount of oil we'd need was half of 17 oz.) and oil based food coloring. Add your colored oil to the bottle. Twist cap on bottle tightly and seal with tape.
Because Oil and water don't mix, the colors will always separate, but when shaken they are transparent enough where your eye sees the color they make. It's a good way to always remind Goose what colors mix to make the secondary colors, but still be physical (and not messy!). A sad, teething, Monkey even liked it!
