How To Make a Mini Volcano

How fantastic to see your enthusiasm for this science experiment, Room 3! I do hope you get a chance to try it at home. Be sure that Mum, Dad or an adult helps you! Have fun!

Here's what you need:

1 tsp baking soda (Sodium Bicarbonate)
1 tsp citric acid

4-5 droplets of red food colouring

Note - you can add more baking soda and citric acid, but both quantities should be the same.

A plastic cup that can be turned upside down to hold all ingredients and so it looks like a mountain.
A plastic plate to catch ingredients.

See pictures below.

Let me know how you get on, or post some pictures of you being a 'super scientist' at home!
Enjoy!
