Science Experiments for Adults with Special Needs | DIY Inflatable Glove
Wanna talk about fun science experiments for adults with or without special needs? It doesn’t get much better than using a mixture of vinegar and baking soda to inflate a latex-free glove. This is a fan favorite at Stephen’s Place and here’s how you do it:
Ingredients:
- Baking soda
- White vinegar
- Disposable Latex-free gloves
- Empty water bottles
- A funnel
Directions
- Use your funnel to pour Baking Soda into your glove, filling about a finger of the glove
- Use the funnel to pour vinegar into the water bottle, filling about 1/2 of the bottle.
- Cover the top of the bottle with the bottom of the glove attaching with a rubber band
- When ready, lift the glove and let the Baking Soda fall into the vinegar.
- Watch as the mixture fizzes, bubbles, and inflates your glove!
