Plants need sun, soil and water to live and grow. Our experiment this week aimed at demonstrating flowers drinking water. We took 4 glasses, filled them with water then food coloring and placed a white carnation in each color. The children predicted the carnation's petals would change to the color of the colored water.

Our white flowers turned green, red, blue and yellow! |

Our final experiment: how the red carnation would change if placed in the blue water. Its veins are red and blue! (flower on far left) |
