Most children love making fizzy potions with vinegar and bicarbonate of soda and it’s even more fun with a theme, so today our fizzy potions have a fairy or maybe a witchy twist. I made some labels for the jars which you can download for free from the link in the materials section.

Spoon or pour the magical ingredients into different containers.
Try adding different combinations of food colouring, water, vinegar and bicarbonate of soda into a container. You should find it fizzes beautifully as soon as the bicarbonate of soda and vinegar mix.
