Disappearing Candy Cane

Do you know how to make a candy cane disappear? 


I'm sure you have a few of these laying around the house, especially at this time of year. 


Simply add warm water and watch it start to bubble and disappear before your very eyes!!!!


This is what it looks like after 1 MINUTE


5 MINUTES


15 MINUTES


20 MINUTES


35 MINUTES!!! 


The reason it does this is because of the sugar the candy cane is made from. 
The warm water dissolves the candy cane in minutes. 

This is a great lesson for children and teaches them about how solids can be dissolved. It also teaches them about the importance of healthy eating. 

Please email me pictures of your little one conducting this experiment. I'd love to see them.
