Ingredients
Whole milk or half and half
Green & red food coloring
Liquid Dish soap
1 Craft Stick
Small shallow pan or plastic container
Red and Green Glitter (optional)
Peppermint Extract (optional)
Directions
Pour a small amount of milk or half and half into a shallow pan or plastic container. Add a drop of peppermint extract to give it a festive scent. Add a few drops of green and red food coloring, and sprinkle glitter on top of the milk. Dip one end of the craft stick into the liquid dish soap and invite your child to place the soap-covered end into the middle of the milk dish. Watch what happens!
The glitter will jump to the edge of the container and the colors of milk will begin to swirl. Dip the craft stick again in soap and back into the milk to continue the swirling.
