Tired of sending the same old boring paper Valentines to school? Add a little science in with the paper hearts and give a creative, unique Valentine this year... one the kids can learn from after the party is over. This activity is easier and faster than the time it would take to tape a lollipop on a paper Valentine!
Materials
- Baby Soda Bottles (Large Test Tubes)
- True Color Mixing Tablets
- Red and pink M&Ms, Conversation Hearts, red hots, Skittles, confetti or any other candy that will fit in the test tubes
- Ribbon
- Small plastic bag

- Get enough Baby Soda Bottles for everyone on your Valentine list. Fill them with the candy or fun confetti of choice. Put on the cap.
- Print instructions for a small activity to do with the Baby Soda Bottle after the candy is gone. For some ideas, read our experiment on What is a Baby Soda Bottle?
- For our Valentines we chose the Make Your Own Lava Lamp experiment and included a small bag with a few Color Mixing Tablets and directions. If you use this experiment, make sure the mixing tablets are marked with a "do not eat" label!
- Punch a hole in instruction sheet.
- Tie the ribbon through the hole in the instructions and top of Baby Soda Bottle.
- You can cover the caps with fabric or tissue paper for a more festive look since the Baby Soda Bottles come in various colors.
