Experiments

• Volcano—vinegar and baking soda
• Hydrophobic/hydrophyllic—oil and water, lotus pads in our pond
• Cabbage Indicator—red cabbage solution to tell acids and bases
• Refraction—light and prism
  
• Magnetism—polarity, magnetic metal, different shapes, sizes and strengths, Geomags and a little imagination go a long way.
