We had a fun science presentation today from one of our students and all the kids wanted to know how to do it at home.  I told them I would post it on the blog.  Here it is:

Elephant Toothpaste––

Put 1/2 cup hydrogen peroxide in an empty plastic water bottle and pour in 4 drops of food coloring and a squirt of dish soap. In a separate container mix 1 T. yeast with 3 T. water.  Using a funnel, pour the yeast mixture into the water bottle.  (Make sure the water bottle is in a large bowl–it will spill over!)
