Rain storm in a jar

A simple experiment to demonstrate how a rainstorm can be created in a jar.

How to:

Fill a clear cup or jar with water- leave enough space to add shaving cream on top.

Add enough shaving cream on top to look like a cloud

Slowly add a few drops of blue food colouring on the top on the shaving cream.

Watch as these blue drops fall through the clouds just like rain falling from the clouds in the sky.
