Tornado in a bottle

Tornado


MATERIALS:
  • mayonnaise jar or a canning jar
  • clear liquid soap
  • vinegar
  • water


PROCESS:
Fill the jar about three-quarters full of water.
Put a teaspoon of the liquid soap into the jar.
Also, add a teaspoon of vinegar into the jar.
Tighten the lid and shake the jar to mix up the ingredients.
Now, swirl the jar in a circular motion.
The liquid will form a small tornado.
*If you want to get creative, you can also use food coloring to make the tornado have a color and glitter to represent debris

EXPLANATION:
The swirling motion you give the bottle forms a vortex and is a easy way to create your own tornado.
