Lightbulb Water bottle secrets

Look at floating/sinking and movement in liquids.

Have a selection of small clear plastic drinks bottles.

Fill them 3/4 full of different liquids.

Water ~ Baby oil ~ Jelly! ~ shampoo

Add different things to each of the bottles

Small world creatures
Button & Beads
Glitter & Sequins

:frog: Add a couple drops of food colouring ~ with 7 bottles you could make a rainbow !!!

Glue the caps securely back onto the bottles
Shake / turn upside/ hold on its side and move it gently in a rocking motion.

How do the items move in the liquids?
