It was almost a year ago when Mark and I learned that when you mix Coke and Mentos you get an eruption. I don't remember if we told the boys or not. But a few weeks ago Noah had a playdate with some friends from church and while they were there Coke and Mentos must have come up in their conversation because ever since Noah has been asking if we could try eating mentos and drinking some coke and how he couldn't wait to have it spray out of his mouth. So today we decided to give it a try and here's what happened. We figured out a few things in the process, first and foremost being that you can't put coke and mentos in your mouth and have it spray all over the place. And second, you can't reuse already erupted coke. But most important, we figured out that the more mentos you drop in the coke, the bigger the eruption. Of course, we're no experts on the whole thing so if you've figured out any tricks, send them our way. Noah will be thrilled!
And just for fun, here's what the twins did today while the rest of us were experimenting.
