Flower Tinting

This is such a fun activity to do with your little one. It also allows you to show your child how plants drink water through their stalks and where the water goes.

Materials
Clear vase or cup
water
food coloring
White carnation or daisy

Directions
1. Fill a clear vase or cup halfway with water and add enough food coloring to tint the water a bright colour.
2. Add the chosen flower and watch the flower change color over the next few hours. It's that easy!
You can also do this experiment with celery. In fact, this may be a great way to encourage a reluctant eater. After all, purple celery is bound to taste better then the green variety.
