Lesson Idea | Rainbow Volcano Science Experiment

The rainbow volcano science experiment offers a fun and engaging way for children to explore scientific concepts through a hands-on activity. By using lemon juice instead of vinegar, kids create a colorful eruption that demonstrates acid-base reactions. As they combine baking soda with lemon juice, they observe carbon dioxide bubbles forming and the mesmerizing swirl of colors. This STEM activity is perfect for preschool and elementary students, promoting scientific exploration and creative play. With simple ingredients from the kitchen, children learn about chemical reactions while developing patience and focus through this exciting experiment.
