How to make a Lava Lamp

Having done this a few years ago with my eldest son I just know my 5 year old will love this.

You will need:

•     A clean 1 litre clear coke / lemonade bottle
•     3/4 cup of water
•     Vegetable oil
•     Fizzing tablets (such as Alka Seltzer)
•     Food colouring

1. Pour the water into the bottle.
2. Use a measuring cup or funnel to slowly pour the vegetable oil into the bottle until it is almost full. You may have to wait a few minutes for the oil and water to separate.
3. Add 10 drops of food colouring to the bottle, we like red, but any colour will look great. The drops will pass through the oil and then mix with the water below.
4. Break the alka seltzer tablet in half and drop the half tablet into the bottle. Watch it sink to the bottom and let the blobby greatness begin!
5. To keep the effect going, just add another tablet piece.
6. For a true lava lamp effect, shine a torch through the bottom of the bottle.

Create a little happiness today.

Turn little moments into big smiles.

The engineering of yesterday continues on today and this vintage style concertina retractable peg coat rack is a great example of a timeless classic.
