Spread Your Rainbow Wings! (Make a Rainbow!)

Spread Your Rainbow Wings!

Make your own Rainbow!

Try ths “Rainbow in a Bottle Experiment!”

For this project, you’ll need some special equipment. This experiment, however, is special because it is the same one Sir Isaac Newton did when discovering properties of light.
With your child, fill up a fishbowl or glass three-fourths of the way.
Submerge a small hand mirror in the water, and balance it on the side of the glass.
With one hand, hold up a white piece of cardboard in front of the mirror, and with the other hand, shine a flashlight into the mirror.
You’ve created a rainbow in a bottle that will reflect on the cardboard paper.
