Makin’ Waves

Makin’ WavesGet geared up for a summer at the beach with this fun wave-bottle craft.

 

What you’ll need:

Empty plastic drink bottle (20oz. or 2 liter; the size depends on how big you want the waves!)

Cooking oil

Water

Blue food coloring

Super glue

 

Have your child fill the bottle halfway with cooking oil. Add enough water (dyed blue with food coloring) to fill the bottle to the 3/4 mark. You replace the cap and seal it closed with super glue.

Once the glue dries, watch your child as they discover the gentle, rolling waves of the ocean!
