Letters to Lyla and Lottie

Dear Lyla, thanks to Pinterest, we keep finding more and more fun things to do!  This one was fun because each stage was interactive.  First, you poured in the cooking oil.  Then, you poured in the water and go to watch it separate and sink to the bottom.  You watched intently and said “ooh”.  Then, you got to add food coloring of your choice.  After a short wait to let it settle (which was a fun time trying to distract you…NOT), you got to add the Alka Seltzer tabs.  “Oh wow!” was the first thing you said when it started fizzing and bubbling just like a real Lava Lamp.  It was so fun to watch you squeal in delight each time you added a tab.  This was one of my favorite activity to date.  We even brought it to Idaho to show your cousins who also got a kick out of it.  Too bad we forgot and left it there! Oh well, we will make another one.
