It's amazing all the cool things they have for kids these days! Mandy got a kit called "Tasty Science" from the toy store the other day. It's cooking and science in a box. The girls decided to do an experiment on why cupcakes rise. Do you know why cupcakes rise? Well, I am going to tell you. A chemical reaction takes place when an acid (vinegar) and a base (baking soda) are combined and this causes carbon dioxide bubbles to form. The bubbles cause the cupcakes to rise. Now, don't you feel smarter? I know the girls and I did! Plus, the cupcakes were tasty.:-)
Hi Lori! Please tell Katie we are mailing on Monday ! We have had drama galore around here... but hopefully things are claming down!
ReplyDeleteI will email you on Monday to confirm!Sorry for the delay!
I love science projects that you can eat... But then again...I like anything that has food in it!
ReplyDeleteAND I love Mandy's shirt!
Have a great weekend... We are doing a big mountain hike tomorrow-Yikes!
We love science experiments, too. This year at VBS one of the "stations" was science experiments. One day they blew up a balloon with baking soda and vinegar which was Anna's favorite experiment.
