YOU WILL NEED:

  • Baking Soda
  • Vinegar
  • Green Food Coloring
  • Green Plastic Easter Eggs
  • Squirt Bottle or Baster
  • Baking Dish
  • Book: Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss

Green Eggs and Ham Activity Set Up:

You will want to make sure to put your green eggs for the Green Eggs and Ham activity on a tray or in a baking dish to catch all the fizz! Otherwise, it will get extra messy very fast.

STEP 1:  Fill half of each plastic egg with baking soda.  A tablespoon or so should work!

STEP 2:  Of course, you want your fizzy green eggs to be green! You can add several drops of liquid green food coloring to your eggs. You can also add a dash of green glitter too!

BAKING SODA AND VINEGAR REACTION

This fizzy Green Egss and Ham activity is a fun example of a chemical reaction including states of matter!   That is a solid (baking soda) and a liquid (vinegar) reacting together to form a completely new substance.

When the vinegar (an acid) and baking soda (a base) combine together, they form a gas called carbon dioxide which is all the fizzing bubbling action you see! All three states of matter are present: liquid (vinegar), solid (baking soda), and gas (carbon dioxide).

What can you use instead of baking soda and vinegar?

Did you know you can swap out vinegar with lemon juice or lime juice?

Did you also know you can swap out baking soda and vinegar for baking powder and water?

We did it here>> Gingerbread Science
