This experiment combines the joy of surprises with the fascination of chemical reactions.

 

Important Note: Prior to using any of the products mentioned, it is highly recommended to thoroughly read and understand all safety precautions associated with each product.

Here are the materials you'll need:

  • Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate
  • Acetic Acid 3%
  • Food Colouring
  • Water
  • Bowl and Spoon
  • Plastic Eggs
  • Surprise Items (this could be small figurines similar to what you would find in a Kinder Surprise Egg!)

 

Step 1: Empty a 500gm pack of Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate into a bowl.

Step 2: Gradually add a small amount of water to the Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate, carefully moulding it into a shape. Remember, it should hold its form without being too runny. If it becomes too liquid, simply add more Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate until you achieve the perfect consistency.

Step 3: Take some of the dough you created and place it into the bottom half of the plastic egg. Now, it's time to add the surprise item on top.

Step 4: Cover the surprise item with more dough.

Step 5: Now, it's time to work on the top half of the plastic egg. Fill this section with more Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate.

Step 6: Carefully put both halves of the plastic egg together, gently tightening them to secure the surprise within.

Step 7: Place your assembled egg in the freezer for 30 minutes. Freezing will help the egg maintain its shape and prevent any accidental eruptions before the big reveal.

Step 8: After 30 minutes, take the egg out of the freezer and carefully remove it from the plastic egg container.

Step 9: Drop your surprise-filled egg into a container of Acetic Acid 3% and watch in amazement as your egg erupts, revealing the hidden surprise item!
