Fizzy painting has everything we look for in a children's activity; it is an open-ended, process oriented, inexpensive activity, using readily available materials with sensory, art and science components.The adults enjoyed it just a much as the children, so be sure to set up a tray for yourself.
You will need:
baking soda
white vinegar
food dye
pipette/eye dropper
tray
Begin by applying a generous layer of baking soda on your tray. about 1/4"-1/2"
Place about an ounce of white vinegar in a small cup with a few drops of food coloring.
Drop tinted vinegar onto the baking soda and watch it fizzle. Using the eye dropper is a great way to develop the fine motor skills needed for writing.
A relaxing activity for almost all ages.....with a pleasing display of colors and texture.
