Description

An engaging DIY project to explore weather phenomena and create a captivating display that mimics rain clouds.


Ingredients

  • A clear glass jar (any size)
  • Shaving cream (unscented)
  • Food coloring (variety of colors)
  • Water
  • A spoon or dropper
  • Optional: Small bowl for mixing colors

Instructions

  1. Fill your clear glass jar with water, leaving about an inch of space at the top.
  2. Carefully squirt a layer of shaving cream on top of the water. This will be your cloud.
  3. In a separate small bowl, mix food coloring with a little water if desired for a more diluted effect.
  4. Using a dropper, place drops of food coloring on top of the shaving cream “cloud”.
  5. Allow the colored water to seep through the shaving cream and fall into the jar below.

Notes

Experiment with different colors and jar sizes. Add glitter for a sparkling effect and use whipped cream for a winter cloud version.
