Stallone Tested & Approved: What a FUN, FUN, and FUN activity! You must try this! Thank you Pinterest for the great idea! Stallone would of sat there all day making "fizz" if he could! We will be doing this lots more times. It was educational asking him questions about the reaction of the vinegar and the baking soda and don't forget all the great colors involved. We mixed colors to make new colors like: orange, purple, and brown lol! Try this out, ;et us know what you think?
