As part of my summer cleaning, I decided to clean out our family medicine cabinets. I found a lot of items left behind from previous house guests, items that my family doesn’t use – but I didn’t want to toss them in the trash. I started considering creative ways that I could use them. When I came across a package of Alka-Seltzer, I figured that since it fizzes and bubbles when added to water, I could use them to make lava lamps with the boys. We headed outside with the Alka-Seltzer tablets and a few other items from our kitchen cabinet and recycling bin. What ensued was an afternoon packed with learning fun as my boys created lava lamps using these ingredients.
