On Friday we set up a science demonstration with these cups of colored water and a couple of paper towels. The activity is similar to the Walking Water Science we did last fall and some of the older kids even remembered doing it the other way and asked if we could do that again, so we'll probably have to try that out again next week! :) The ones who remembered our previous setup knew that the paper towels were going to soak up, or "absorb" the water and that they would carry it into the center cup. They also "predicted" (we used lots of fun science words!) that the blue and yellow would combine to make green!
As we checked on our cups throughout the day, we "observed" the colors slowly start to travel into the center cup...
where they would indeed continue to mix together to make green!
