Remember the order of the colours: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet.

BUILD A SOAP POWERED BOAT

You will need: *A foam tray (like the kind meat comes in) or a piece of cardboard * A tray or bowl full of water *Liquid soap *A toothpick

What to do:

Cut the foam tray or cardboard into a boat shape as shown below: A good size seems to be about

5-6 cms. Next dip the toothpick into the liquid soap and wipe it around the back of the boat (the triangle bit). Place the boat onto the water and watch carefully- does it move across the water on its own?  If yes then you’ve made a soap powered boat! To try it again, you need to wash and dry the bowl or tray carefully so there is no soap left.

To make it a scientific experiment you could try to answer these questions.

Does it travel better in hot or cold water?

Which materials make the best floating boat?

Does liquid soap, washing up liquid or a solid soap work better?
