  1. baking soda and vingegar with red ish orange food coloring... clean up is your own problem...


  2. vinegar and baking soda..

  3. 1. Use a sheet of plywood at least 8 inches wider and longer than your planned volcano to make the base, to prevent the lava from staining surfaces during eruptions.

    2. Use salt dough, plaster or papier-mache to form a mountain around an empty 2-liter bottle placed upright at the center of the plywood base. Be sure to leave the lid off.

    3. Form the model volcano's open top tightly around the mouth of the bottle.

    4. Make ridges and channels beginning at the volcano's top and ending at the base of the volcano for the lava to flow through.

    5. Let the volcano dry completely, then paint it with acrylics or spray paint. Plastic aquarium plants can be clipped and glued to the volcano for trees.

    6. Spray the volcano and plywood with a clear sealant after the paint has dried.

    7. Mix 1 tbsp. liquid dish washing soap, 1 tbsp. baking soda and a few drops of red food coloring in a cup.

    8. Pour the mixture carefully into the bottle.

    9. Set the volcano in an open area, preferably outside.

    10. Pour 1/4 cup. white vinegar into the bottle and stand back to watch your volcano erupt!

    Hope I helped!!

  4. Making a replica of a Volcano is just easy as you thought. Just follow this steps:

    1. Make a volcano replica by using a lot of clay, put a deep hole maybe just a half of the replica's height at the center..

    2. put the replica in a place where it cannot be touched by anyone and exposed to the sun and air. It is for hardening using the air/ wind

    3. while waiting for the replica to be hardened, get an orange or red powdered artificial coloring and mix it with the baking soda.

    4. after the volcano was hardened, put the mixture of powdered artificial coloring to the replica's crater.

    5. and last, pour 3/4 cup of vinegar to the crater.

    Result, A TOTALLY VOLCANO MESS!!!

  5. Bicarb soda, dish washing liquid, red dye, vinegar, all put in fast and stand back, u cna also add mentos and coke if u want a better result
