We all read in our science books that the petals absorb water. Here is the way to prove it to your little one. This science experiment or colourful water experiment shows how flowers absorb water into their petals to keep them fresh. This activity helps in developing your little one's thinking and learning skills.
 
Requisites: White flowers, Water, Food colouring, Small vases
 
Steps:
 
1) Cut a single flower with a fairly short stem. A shorter stem will get you a quicker result as the colour has to travel all the way up the stem to get to the petals. Cut the stem on an angle to give a greater surface area for the coloured water to enter by.
 
2) Now place the flower in a small, short vase or glass (a shot glass works well) and add a generous amount of food colouring.
 
3) Keep an eye on it, in about 30 minutes some colour will start to show in the petals. If you want to be really fancy, take a time lapse video on your iphone (in the camera field, you’ll find a ‘time lapse’ button) to see the changes happening quickly.
 
Flowers suck water up through their stems to feed their petals and make them grow. This process is called, ‘capillary action’. While in this experiment the water is coloured, the petals becomes coloured too.
