28 Jul 🎨Cabbage Indicator Tie Dyeing
At Discovery we love putting the Arts in STEAM!
Â
Last week, Anita discovered how we can create our own pH indicator using the humble red cabbage. We had a fair amount of indicator left over, so we got creative and used the different colours produced in our experiment to create a tie dyed lab coat*!!
Â
Follow on with Anita as she creates a cabbage indicator masterpiece, and explores the science that lends itself to dyeing cotton.
