What you will need: Water  A clear plastic bottle Vegetable oil Food colouring Alka-Seltzer (or other tablets that fizz) Instructions: 1. Pour water into the plastic bottle until it's   around one quarter full. You might want to use a funnel when filling the bottle so you don't spill anything. 2.Pour in vegetable oil until the bottle is almost full. 3.Wait for the water and oil to separate. 4. Add a dozen drops of food colouring into the bottle (choose any colour you like). 5. The food colouring should fall through the oil and mix with the water. 6.Cut an Alka-Seltzer tablet into small pieces (5-6 pieces) and drop one of them into the bottle, things should start getting a little crazy because the lava lamp should be coming to life! 7.
