How long can the eggs stay around once the shell is dissolved? I plan to do this series with my 1st grader for her science poster and would love to have the real thing on display as well. Thanks!

]]> By: Querida https://www.playdoughtoplato.com/cool-science-experiments/#comment-404879 https://www.playdoughtoplato.com/?p=17470#comment-404879 This was great! I used it for a small science group I teach. We are in the process of deflating the red egg again because we want to know if we submerge it in water with blue food coloring, if it will turn purple! Deflating it from its red stage is helpful because the girls can see the water as a red line of water and now also know that corn syrup doesn’t mix with water because it’s denser. Thanks for a great lesson!

Loved reading this very exciting to read on and see what her reactions to the egg would be! Also I learned something too 39 years old never too old to learn something new! Will be doing this with my 6 year old daughter! How egg citing!!!

It was so informative and will certainly be something I can use in my preschool class. I loved your photographs of your little girl! They added to the whole presentation. Hopefully the children in my class will be just as excited and interested as your little girl was.

Honey might work as well. 🙂 It’s high in sugar and is a higher density to maple syrup.

Hmmm… perhaps maple syrup? Whatever you choose it would have to have a low concentration of water and high concentration of sugar. The syrup might work but it seems too watery to me and expensive! You could always wait and leave the egg in the vinegar for a day while you get corn syrup.

]]> By: Jasmine https://www.playdoughtoplato.com/cool-science-experiments/#comment-205779 https://www.playdoughtoplato.com/?p=17470#comment-205779 Is there anything I can use instead of corn syrup? We are half way through and I don’t have any!!

]]> By: Sarah Nash https://www.playdoughtoplato.com/cool-science-experiments/#comment-188873 https://www.playdoughtoplato.com/?p=17470#comment-188873 I love how you explained osmosis and semi-permeable membranes to your daughter. Simple, but scientifically accurate.

Our preschoolers at my school loved this experiment! They went home telling their parents all about it. Can’t wait to try it with my own kiddos! Great job and thank you for posting!

]]> By: Cathy https://www.playdoughtoplato.com/cool-science-experiments/#comment-169722 https://www.playdoughtoplato.com/?p=17470#comment-169722 I just saw this and love it. Now I’m all set for science in kindergarten next week. I would like to add the diffusion, and osmosis is part of the grade 8 curriculum in Ontario. I would use these and have older students explain what and why these things happened!

]]> By: Lena https://www.playdoughtoplato.com/cool-science-experiments/#comment-168180 https://www.playdoughtoplato.com/?p=17470#comment-168180 Just to be clear, when you said the eggs in vinegar and water, is the egg raw or do you boil it first?

]]> By: Cecile https://www.playdoughtoplato.com/cool-science-experiments/#comment-156542 https://www.playdoughtoplato.com/?p=17470#comment-156542 Thank you so much ! I had a wonderful time with my 5 years old son. And I’ve also learned what osmosis was… We don’t have corn syrup in France but it has perfectly worked with agave syrup.

I think it would still be in it’s rubbery, bouncy state but I wouldn’t want it to burst anywhere near me. If you chose to keep it in vinegar that long, I would keep it in the fridge. It is a raw egg after all!

]]> By: heather https://www.playdoughtoplato.com/cool-science-experiments/#comment-156025 https://www.playdoughtoplato.com/?p=17470#comment-156025 if I just leave the egg in the vinegar for 10 days will it last in it’s “rubberized” state until we take it out? Or will it go “bad” before then?

]]> By: Curt https://www.playdoughtoplato.com/cool-science-experiments/#comment-155935 https://www.playdoughtoplato.com/?p=17470#comment-155935 Awesome! That’s a lot of science from just one egg!
