You can do many fun and easy science experiments at home using basic household items.

Easy Home Experiments

Magic Milk : Pour milk into a dish, add drops of food coloring, and touch a cotton swab dipped in dish soap to watch the colors swirl and move. DIY Lava Lamp : Mix water, cooking oil, food coloring, and a piece of an antacid tablet (or vinegar and baking soda) to create colorful bubbling motion. Dancing Raisins : Drop a few raisins into a glass of clear seltzer or sparkling water to watch them float and sink as carbon dioxide bubbles attach to them. Walking Water : Place cups of water with different food colorings in a row, connected by folded paper towels, to watch the water travel and mix new colors.
