3) Use the pipettes/straws to put drops of the paint or food colouring onto the shaving cream.
4) Keep adding droplets and watch what happens!

The rain is the paint/food colouring you see as it falls into the jar of water!]]> 2020-04-11 11:49:16 UTC https://padlet.com/sdowneybed17/7wjk2krie5opx2t4/wish/502836585 sdowneybed17 https://padlet.com/sdowneybed17/7wjk2krie5opx2t4/wish/502842336 2020-04-11 12:02:02 UTC https://padlet.com/sdowneybed17/7wjk2krie5opx2t4/wish/502842336 sdowneybed17 https://padlet.com/sdowneybed17/7wjk2krie5opx2t4/wish/502842719 2020-04-11 12:02:53 UTC https://padlet.com/sdowneybed17/7wjk2krie5opx2t4/wish/502842719 sdowneybed17 https://padlet.com/sdowneybed17/7wjk2krie5opx2t4/wish/502843914 A round jar.

2) Add 1 teaspoon of dish soap and 1-2 drops of food colouring.
3) Put the lid on and swirl around to mix.
_{(If too many bubbles form, you can add a drop of vinegar, or scoop them from the top)}
4) Swirl the jar in a circular motion until the 'tornado' forms! ]]> 2020-04-11 12:12:35 UTC https://padlet.com/sdowneybed17/7wjk2krie5opx2t4/wish/502847420 sdowneybed17 https://padlet.com/sdowneybed17/7wjk2krie5opx2t4/wish/502872130 The jar of water is the air and when you swirl the jar it creates 'wind'.
Very strong winds moving in different directions at high speeds causes the air to swirl.

2A) If using the sunshine, place the glass and page into the sun and see if you can spot the rainbow on the page.
2B) If using the torch, shine the torch along the glass of water until you find the rainbow appearing.
