elephants toothpaste!

ingredients:

• 3% or 6% Hydrogen Peroxide (6% is stronger)

• Warm Water (H20)

• Dish Soap

• Dry yeast

• Food Colouring (Optional)

• Baking Tray (indoors) 

Newspaper (outdoors)

• Plastic Bottle

• Funnel (Optional)

Instructions:

• Place the bottle on a tray or newspaper. The toothpaste can be messy and spread so this will help make clean up a breeze.

• You can put goggles on if you want to be extra safe as Hydrogen Peroxide (H202) can irritate eyes and skin.

• Drop some food colouring into the bottle.

• Squirt dish soap into the bottle (approximately one tablespoon)

• Pour in half a cup of Hydrogen Peroxide. Swish the bottle to mix the ingredients.

• In a container mix three tablespoons of warm water with one tablespoon of yeast. Mix really well for about 30 seconds. 

• Now for some fun! Pour the yeast into the bottle and stand a little bit away. The reaction creates a foamy toothpaste that flows out of the bottle.

• It’s safe to play with the foam. The foam is now just soap, water and oxygen.
