MAKING THE VOLCANO SHELL
Step 1: To make the basic shape of a volcano cut the middle of a plastic bottle out and then overlap the two ends together securing it with masking tape. Step 2: Now for the fun part: Apply paper mache to the volcano using small strips of newspaper dipped into a gluey water mixture. Allow to dry. Step 3: When the paper mache is dry, get the kids to paint the volcano.
MAKING THE ERUPTION:
Step 1: Fill the bottle almost full with water. Put four to five drops of dishwashing liquid into the water followed by two drops of red food colouring. Step 2: Add the Bi-Carb to the mix. Put the Volcano over the bottle so it is in place and ready to go.
