WEEKEND SCIENCE

Shaving cream rain clouds

This is always such a fun experiment for the kids.

You will need:
Shaving cream ( we used gel and it didn’t have the same look as a shaving foam)
Food colouring
Cold water
Clear container

Method
Fill a clear container with cold water.
Spray your shaving goam on top of the water
Add a few drops of colouring, one drop at a time.

How it works:
The shaving cream represents the clouds and the water represents the atmosphere.

When adding the food colouring to the shaving cream the weight of the food colouring will push through just as rain pushes through the clouds.
