Description

Create colorful, fizzy baking soda treasure rocks that hide little surprises inside. Perfect for kids and adults alike!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup baking soda
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup white vinegar
  • Food coloring (your choice of colors)
  • Small toys or gems (hiding treasures)
  • Mixing bowl
  • Muffin tin or silicone molds
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare your workspace by laying out materials on a clean, flat surface and consider using parchment paper on your baking sheet.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of baking soda with desired food coloring. Stir until thoroughly mixed.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix 1/2 cup water with 1/2 cup white vinegar, expecting fizzing as the vinegar reacts with the baking soda.
  4. Gradually pour the vinegar mixture into the bowl with baking soda while stirring, enjoying the bubbling reactions.
  5. Quickly pack the fizzing mixture into muffin tins or silicone molds, adding small toys or gems into the center.
  6. Allow the rocks to dry for at least 24 hours on a baking sheet, placing them in a warm area for quicker results.
  7. Once dry, carefully remove the rocks from the molds and use a hammer to break them apart to reveal hidden treasures!

Notes

Customize colors and shapes, and consider adding scents or glitter for added fun! Store leftover mixture in a sealed container for a few days.
