• Dry Erase Markers
• Dinner plate or baking dish
• Jar of water (we also experimented with medicine droppers)
• Towel or vinyl table cloth to protect your work surface

Test your markers to make sure the ink is flowing well.

Draw shapes, stick figures or letters on your plate or baking dish.

Pour water into the dish close to the edges of your drawings.

Within seconds, you’ll see the dry erase ink reacting with the water, and the edges of your drawings will begin to lift. As you add more water, the ink will lift away from the bottom of the dish and float to the surface of the water. Note: Some of your drawings may only lift a little, and some might not at all.
