Holy cow this is cool!
Help kids explore science with this fun-to-makemilkscience experimentthat results in beautifully colored notecards for writing notes!
She is always game for anything that has to do with mixing, creating or concocting.
One of her newest interest is writing notes.
It is so cute and excellent for having keepsakes from her childhood.
This process is full of science and amazement and the result is gorgeous!
We are both proud and excited of how these note cards turned out.
We started with a dinner plate.
We poured milk onto the plate until it completely filled the center.
Next we put drops of food coloring in random spots around the milk.
We used 2-3 colors.
We did two different rounds with matching colors.
The first was green, blue and teal.
The second was yellow, red and orange.
I wanted to keep the colors similar because I think if non-matching colors mixed it would just turn brown.
If youre looking for brown colors that would be great, but we wanted bright colors.
Milk Science
The next step is the fun, science part.
We put a few drops of dish soap into the center of the plate.
The dish soap mixed with the milk created motion which basically stirred the food coloring through the milk.
We watched the motion for a few moments in amazement and awe.
It was a sight to see for sure.
When the movement slowed down we took our blank note cards and pressed them down into the liquid.
Weve got lots of fun ideas for you to try!
