Did you know that you can inflate a balloon with baking soda? This is a great experiment for children to have a go at in the kitchen – it only requires a few everyday items and shows how substances can change when mixed together.
The warm water activates the alkaline baking soda – causing carbon dioxide to be released and the balloon to inflate.
