Great choice, Junior Scientist! Today we're doing the "Density Rainbow in a Glass" experiment. Let me explain what we'll discover together. Each liquid has a different density — how heavy it is for its size. Honey is densest so it sinks to the bottom; oil is lightest so it floats on top. They stay in layers like a rainbow!
Ask an adult to help you gather honey, dish soap, colored water, and oil.
