You need

  • A plate of milk
  • Food coloring
  • Dish soap
  • Cotton swabs

Let's play

  1. Pour milk into a plate.
  2. Add a few drops of different food colors in the middle.
  3. Dip a cotton swab in dish soap and touch it to the milk.
  4. Watch the colors swirl and dance!
Grown-up tip: Whole milk works best. Ask: what happens if we touch it again?
