Add 1-3 INCHES of shaving cream to the top. The more shaving cream used the longer the experiment will last.water cycle experiment rain cloudAdd the colored water to the shaving cream drop by drop using an eye dropper or by dipping the straw in the colored water, placing your finger over the end, holding it over the shaving cream, and lifting your finger enough to allow drops of colored water to drip onto the shaving cream.water cycle experiment rain cloudContinue dropping the water onto the shaving cream until you OBSERVE it getting too heavy and “rain” starting to COME out below. Depending on the amount of shaving cream used, this could take anywhere from 40-100 drops.water cycle experiment rain cloudwater cycle experiment rain cloudThis experiment DEMONSTRATES what happens in the clouds during the water cycle. When a cloud accumulates too many water droplets they fall in the form of precipitation. In the experiment, after a certain point the shaving cream can no longer absorb the water drops and gravity pulls them down into the water.Optional: Prior to dropping the water in the shaving cream cloud, have students predict how many drops of water they think the cloud will hold before it starts to “rain” and have them record it. During the experiment, count the number of drops and compare it to students’ guesses.MARK ME AS BRAINLIST AND FOLLOW ME.
