Make: Weather Cloud

This was meant to be an experiment to show clouds and the water cycle but I think we had so much fun that I don't think we even talked about it!!


You will need

  • A jug or large jar

  • Shaving foam

  • Food colouring

  • Pipettes (we used medicine syringes!) or spoons

Make it

  • Fill the cup around half full of water

  • Fill with shaving foam up to the top

  • Mix the food colouring(s) in separate containers with a little water

  • Drip the colouring a little at a time onto the foam

You will find that it takes a few drops for the colouring to become dense enough to 'break through' the cloud into the jar below. And it is rather pretty!
