It’s Day 7 of our 31 Days of Pumpkin Activities series. Today’s activity was definitely a favorite among all three of my children (ages 9, 7, and 3).

 

This is a spin on the classic baking soda and vinegar volcanoes, but these pumpkin volcanoes never get old! So simple and so fun!

 

Here’s what you’ll need:

Mini Pumpkins (hollowed out)

Baking Soda

Vinegar

Food Coloring

Squeeze Bottles

1. Cut open the pumpkins and hollow them out. Add a few drops of red and yellow food coloring into the bottom of the pumpkins. Add a scoop of baking soda on top. This is a “color surprise” trick I learned from Busy Toddler.

 

2. Pour some vinegar into the squeeze bottles and then let your kiddo have some fizzy fun.

 

 

 

So fun!
