Description

A fun and engaging science experiment that combines sensory exploration with color mixing using shaving cream and food coloring.


Ingredients

  • Shaving cream (non-menthol)
  • Food coloring (assorted colors)
  • A shallow dish or tray
  • Water
  • A dropper or pipette
  • Paper towels or a cloth (for clean-up)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Base: Fill your shallow dish or tray with about an inch of water.
  2. Add the Shaving Cream: Generously dollop the shaving cream on top of the water.
  3. Add Color: Using a dropper or pipette, carefully add drops of food coloring onto the shaving cream.
  4. Watch the Reaction: Observe as the color seeps through the shaving cream and into the water.
  5. Cleanup: Use paper towels or a cloth to clean up any spills after the experiment.

Notes

Customize colors with gel food coloring for more vibrancy, add layers of different colors, or mix in edible glitter for a sparkly effect.
