Baking soda and vinegar science experiments are some of the best simple science activities for children! Pull out the kitchen ingredients for these simple yet magical activities for kids!

Another name for baking soda is sodium bicarbonate if you are not familiar with the term baking soda.

I save these for the times that I want to wow the kids. It’s honestly so simple to do, but they ask for them over and over again. Plus, they are super affordable to make too!

    Thank you so much for sharing this! We had tons of fun yesterday with the rocket. After the first round, my husband suggested taping little lights to the bottom of the bottle and launching it after dark. It was magic! I find it hard to stop browsing your site, it is so full of awesome value! My kiddies are going to benefit big time.

      That makes me so happy! Your husband’s idea was brilliant! I sure wish I could have seen that. Doing science with one of our kids is time well spent that we all love.
