Rainbow in a Jar: Creating Liquid Layers

Creating Liquid Layers
You may not know this, but some liquids are more dense than others. Put simply, density is a measure of how closely packed a given material is. In this activity, kids will stack various household liquids on top of each other to create a rainbow in a jar and learn the ins and outs of liquid densities along the way!
