Silly Rainbow Pasta Experiment!

The Lunch Bunch children decided in honor of Purim they wanted to do a silly experiment with pasta and food color coloring. After all Purim is, the silliest holiday!

Everyone took turns coloring the pasta with food coloring. I asked the children "What do you think will happen to the pasta when we cook it?" Will the pasta hold the food coloring and still be like a rainbow when the pasta is cooked?"
"Will the pasta still taste like pasta?" After an interesting discussion we cooked the pasta, and got ready to go outside to play on this beautiful Purim day. Before we went out, the children had the opportunity to taste the pasta. They were pleasantly surprised because the pasta actually tasted like pasta, and it was good! However the color changed, it was a pale red.

Thanks for a fun and very silly day! HAPPY PURIM!
