Lava lamp
The lava lamp attracts the eye and makes both adults and children gaze at the little miracle in the bottle. You can make a small lava lamp at home, using the most common products. The main ingredients of such a magic lamp are simple and easily replaceable. You can use any substitute you have at home. Unfortunately, this lamp is not a real lava lamp, but is essentially just a simple physical experience. But the beauty of the process and the child’s interest in creating a small miracle with his own hands are not lost at all.
1. We will need:
• Bottle or any other suitable container.
• Sunflower oil. You can use any oil you have at home, even massage oil.
• Water.
• Dye. Regular watercolor paints will do.
• Effervescent aspirin. Any effervescent tablet will work perfectly.
• Watering can.
• Stick.
2. Pour water into the bottle. Approximately 1/3.
3. Color the water using dye. I use food paints, but take whatever comes into your head, as long as the water turns into the desired color. Stir well with a stick.
4. Add oil to the lava lamp, but not completely.You need to leave some space for the fizz bubbles.
5. We decided to experiment a little and see what happens if we lightly mix water and oil with a stick.
6. Next is the immediate preparation of the bubbles themselves. Break the effervescent tablet into small pieces.
7. Throw pieces of fizz into the bottle.
8. And we watch how bubbles begin to rise from the bottom.
9. If you close the bottle with a stopper, the colored liquid begins to creep up the walls of the vessel.
10. Imagine that colored water reaches the very top of the bottle. We have a few minutes to watch this fascinating process.
