Halloween Potions!

We have been reading Room on the Broom by Julia Donaldson and Axel Schffler in the week coming up to Halloween.

"Iggety, ziggety, zaggety, ZOOM"! We used 'skeleton bones' (baking soda), 'vampire blood' (food colouring) and just a b it of 'magic water' (vineagar) to create a bubbling cauldron of magic!
