  11. Balloon Blow-Up Science Experiment

    Ask your children what might happen, and why. Count to 3 and everyone holds up their balloon so the baking soda falls into the vinegar, creating a chemical reaction and blowing up their balloon. Let the kids know what will happen scientifically. SCIENCE: When baking soda and vinegar are mixed together, it creates a gas called carbon dioxide.

  12. Self-Inflating Balloons

    Experimental Procedure: Put the water bottle where it will stand upright securely, or have a partner hold it. Fill it halfway with vinegar. Give the balloon a good stretching, like you would if you were about to blow it up. Use the funnel to put the baking soda inside the balloon. Gently shake the balloon until all the baking soda goes to the ...

    How to do the Self-Inflating Balloon Experiment: To keep this scientific, add the same amount of inflation material into each bottle. We added about 3 tablespoons of hot water into one bottle, vinegar into another, and warm water into the third (for the yeast). We added 1 teaspoon of sugar along with half a yeast packet to the yeast bottle.

  14. Baking Soda and Vinegar Balloon Experiment

    Experimental Procedure. Using the funnel, add the baking soda to each balloon (two people may be needed for this; one person to hold the balloon open and the other person to put the baking soda inside of the balloon). Pour the vinegar into the bottle. Carefully fit the balloon over the bottle opening (be careful not to drop the baking soda into ...

  15. Use a Bottle to Blow-up a Balloon Science Experiment

    Step 1 - Start with an empty two-liter bottle and secure a balloon around the mouth of the bottle. Helpful Tip: 8-inch balloons work best for this experiment. When we tried this with a 10-inch balloon, it didn't inflate entirely. Step 2 - Prepare two pans of water. Fill one pan with ice and cold water.
