Fizzing Snowballs

    Fizzing Snowballs

    The elf left baking soda snowballs in a muffin tin and cups of colored vinegar. Every drop makes the snow fizz and bubble in a new color.

    Instructions

    1. Mix a cup of baking soda with a few spoonfuls of water until it packs like snow.
    2. Press it into small balls and set one in each cup of a muffin tin.
    3. Pour a little vinegar into three small cups and add a few drops of a different food coloring to each.
    4. Put a dropper in each cup and pose your elf holding one over a snowball.
    5. In the morning, the kids drip the colored vinegar on and watch the snowballs fizz.

    Tip: Do it on a tray, and use old clothes or an apron, since food coloring can stain.
