My Little Scientists - Density Demonstration

Today we learned about density.  Using colored water and oil, we noticed that the lighter density oil floated on top of the heavier density water no matter which way we held the bottle.  The kids had fun shaking the bottles and then watching the insoluble liquids separate.  They also held the bottles up to the sunlight to observe the patterns in the oil and water.

(No, 3D glasses weren't part of the demonstration.  They were added to protect the identities of my little Sweet Peas.)
