Since the kids didn't have school on this particular day, we decided that they could still learn a few things and have some fun. We bought diet soda, alka seltzer, mint mentos and fruit flavored mentos. We tried the alka seltzer into the soda first and that didn't do anything impressive. It dropped to the bottom and fizzed until the tablet had dissolved. We then dropped one mint mentos into the soda. Eh, a little action. Then we got impatient...We brought out the whole stick of mint mentos and dropped it into the soda. That's what you're seeing here!
No school today? Lucky kids! My brother had school.
ReplyDeleteLooks like they had a lot of fun. When i was a lot younger we did this science experiment at school where we turned off all the lights, closed the curtains. Then we placed mint mentos on the table & used a hammer to pound on it & sparks of lights came out. It was awesome!
