Do It Yourself - Lava lamps
Have you ever seen a lava lamp?
Lava lamps:
A lava lamp is a decorative lamp. It usually has a light inside which gives off heat and a liquid inside which moves around from the heat!
Have a go at making your very own lava lamp at home!
You need:
- oil
- a water bottle
- food colouring
Step 1 - add oil to the bottle (not to the top so it is full though - leave some space!)
Step 2 - add some water
Step 3 - Add 4 drops of food colouring
Step 4 - Put a lid on it really tightly and turn it upside down
What do you notice about the food colouring blobs? 🤔
What shapes can you see inside your lava lamp?
Can you describe the speed of the blobs - are they fast or slow?
