Instructions

1. Fill bottles with water, and add small objects according to the theme. Seal
with hot glue (adult only) and tape.
2. You can make a variety of theme bottles. For example, make a sea theme by
adding blue food coloring, small plastic fish, and seashells; a color theme by
adding the same color objects; or an alphabet theme by adding a plastic
letter and other items that begin with the letter.
3. Another idea is to fill the bottles with thick liquids such as shampoo, add
marbles, and watch them slowly sink.
