EXPLODING BALLOONS!!!

You will NOT believe what we did today for Science! We did three experiments, but the one I liked the most was the one where the balloons exploded! First, we got a balloon and a coke/pepsi bottle and filled the coke/pepsi bottle with white vinegar but only a third full. We then got a funnel and attached the balloon to the bottom of the funnel. We put four teaspoons of baking soda through the funnel and into the balloon. Then we took the balloon off the funnel and put the bottom over the neck of the bottle and kept the balloon there and the bottle fizzed and blew the balloon up because of the baking soda and vinegar mixing together to create a gas! We went outside and popped the balloons and boy did it make one heck of a mess! My balloons was the biggest and it was the only pink one. It was really fun and it made me burst out laughing when Grayson chucked the balloon on the ground and Wilson dived in and popped it with a pointy pencil!
