Littletree’s experiments with chemistry have joined up with her recently-found interest in low-light photography (which we talked about here).
She’s been experimenting with luminescent chemistry, and we’ve been learning a lot about the stuff that goes into glow sticks, and things that glow in UV light, like the quinine in tonic water.
The latest fun thing to do has been making faerie nightlights by breaking up glow sticks and emptying them into jars. The effect is awesome, especially with mixing different colours.
And then Littletree gets to experiment with low-light photography and painting with light.
We have a tradition that on Yule eve my son takes a glow stick bath; I think I might fill the bathroom with fairy light too :-))
ReplyDeleteLooks awesome!
ooh dropping them into the bath would make a cool effect
