🧪🌈 Science Week: Fizzy Fun! 🌈🧪

Our children enjoyed a hands-on science experiment filled with fizz, colour and excitement! 🔬✨

We placed bicarbonate soda on the tuff tray and filled spray bottles with vinegar and food colouring. The children used their developing hand strength and fine motor skills to squeeze the triggers and create colourful, fizzy reactions! 🌈💦

It was wonderful to see their curiosity, concentration and excitement as they explored cause and effect through hands-on learning. 🧪💙
