Great post, thank you! What were your results with the 3 separate tries- curious as to the baby oil in particular.

Was there a difference in the baby oil or the vegetable oil? Did you prefer one over the other? Did one look better? Thanks.

I want to do this and I know my kids will too! Thanks for sharing at the After School Linky Party!

In reply to Bonnie a.k.a. LadyBlogger. Oh, what a great idea Bonnie! I might need to start saving some really fun bottles for my kids' friends to share. Thanks for stopping by and for the idea :-)

Thanks for such a “groovy” experiment for kids! I think this would be a great take-home activity for a birthday party or sleepover!

I ove this idea! My high schooler would love to do it, and it would be a great break from her studies, it’s been a really busy year for her.

Thanks for stopping by Shannen — I hope your daughter enjoys the lava lamp! My son has all 3 sitting on the shelf in his room now. These don’t light up, but he shines the flashlight through them to see if he can still get a similar look to a real lamp. It’s fun to find projects our older kids enjoy.

How cool! I will have to try this with my oldest daughter! She’s too old for so many projects, but I think she’ll find this really cool!
