Dancing Raisins
Professor O will help you learn: Fizzy bubbles cling to the rough raisins and lift them up; at the top the bubbles pop and they sink - over and over.
⚠️ Raisins and small foods are a choking risk for children under 3. This is a watching experiment, so don't drink the fizzy glass afterwards.
Play through the project step by step, with narration read aloud.
