The lava lamp attracts the eye and makes both adults and children look at a small miracle in a bottle. You can make a small lava lamp at home, while the most common products will be used. The main ingredients of such a magic lamp are simple and easily interchangeable. You can use any substitute that you find at home. Unfortunately, this lamp is not a real lava lamp, but in fact only a simple physical experience. But from this the beauty of the process and the child’s interest in creating a small miracle with his own hands are not lost at all.

1. We will need:
• Bottle or any other suitable container.
• Sunflower oil. You can use any oil that is at home, even massage oil.
• Water.
• Dye. Conventional watercolor paints will work.
• Effervescent aspirin. Any pop-up tablet is perfect.
• Watering can.
• Stick.

2. Pour into a bottle of water. Approximately 1/3.

3. Color the water with dye. I have food-grade paints, but to take everything that wanders into my head, if only the water is painted in the desired color. Stir well with a stick.

4. Add oil to the lava lamp, but not completely. You need to leave some room for pop bubbles.

5. We decided to experiment a bit and see what happens if you mix lightly water and oil with a stick.

6. Far directly the preparation of the bubbles themselves. We break a pop tablet into small parts.

7. Throw pieces of pop into the bottle.

8. And we observe how bubbles begin to rise from the bottom.

9. If you close the bottle with a stopper, the colored liquid begins to creep up the walls of the vessel.

10. Imagine colored water crawling to the very top of the bottle. We have a few minutes to watch this fascinating process.
