Weather Experiment

Weather Experiment

For this experiment you will need:

• A clear glass or plastic cup
• Shaving Cream 
• Food Coloring (Blue would work best)
• Water

Procedure:

1. First, we filled the clear cup with water leaving room for the shaving cream on top. Filling the cup 3/4 full worked best for our class.
2. Next, we put shaving cream at the top of the glass or cup. The shaving cream acts as the "clouds" in the experiment.
3. Then,  we discussed how the rain comes from the clouds. We put in a few drops of the blue food coloring to act as our "rain". Immediately, you will see how the rain comes down from the clouds.
