Free Fun Friday: Discovery Bottles

Over the past few weeks Hannah and I have been making fun discovery bottles. I save a variety of different sized clear plastic bottles...knowing that we might be able to use them for something. My favorites are water bottles & spice bottles. Here are some ideas for making 4 different discovery bottles with your little one:

• Fill a bottle with equal amounts of water and oil, then add food coloring. Mix it up them watch it separate. (Did I mention to glue that top on?! or at least tape it up good with some packing tape)
• Add dish soap and food coloring to a bottle filled with water (see picture below)
• Add glitter and food coloring to another bottle filled with water
• Add food coloring with some small plastic animals that float and sink to a bottle filled with water.

(I let Hannah choose the color...but it looks too much like a sample...the next day I added a little bit of red food coloring, now the bubble bottle is orange :))
