Fizzing Cauldrons Science Experiment for Kids

This Fizzing Cauldrons Science Experiment for Kids is the perfect science activity to do this October. We LOVE doing fizzing/erupting science experiments.. And changing them up for different seasons/holidays helps to keep my students engaged and excited for what may happen next.

In this blog post I’m sharing all the details for what you need and the instructions for how you can make these fizzing cauldrons with your students too.
