Bottle Fun

Toddlers are often mesmerized with the many things water can do. Give them their first taste of science with these bottle experiments.

This is currently in our young toddler class and is by far one of the most loved toys.

Fill a clean sixteen-ounce plastic soda bottle one-third full with water. Add a few drops of food coloring, glitter or beads. Fill the rest of the bottle with baby oil. Glue the cap securely onto the bottle (we also have tape). Shake it up when you are done to watch the water and oil separate as the mixture settles.
