|
For those interested in doing the volcano experiment at home, the recipe is as follows:
Into a narrow glass or vial: 1 heaping tsp. of baking soda
5 drops of red food colouring
5 drops of dish washing liquid
Then add, while stirring: Several drops of white vinegar
Using a stir stick, begin stirring the solution while adding white vinegar, until the solution rises to the top and bubbles over. The children loved doing this!

Some have inquired about the recipe we use for our bannock. This recipe makes enough dough for twenty children, so if you don’t require as much you may want to reduce the amounts by half.
7 cups of flour
3 Tbsp. baking powder
2tsp. salt
2 Tbsp. Sugar
3 Tbsp margarine
Milk
Measure ½ cup of mixture into a small bowl. Add ¼ cup of milk. Stir together well.
Roll the dough onto a lightly floured surface and work it with your hands until it looks like a snake. Wrap it around a green stick (we use Willow). Bake in a 350 F oven for about 25 minutes or until it is lightly browned. Enjoy with butter, jam, honey, or by itself.
