James has been very interested in volcanoes & we have watched Andy’s dinosaur adventures on CBeebies where he was looking for pumice stone which James now knows is made from cooled lava! This gave us the idea to make our own erupting volcano! We made & decorated our own volcano then used bicarbonate of soda, water, food colouring & washing up liquid, mixed them together & watched the reaction! James then had fun playing land of the dinosaurs, making a rocky landscape and helping the dinosaurs escape from the hot lava!
