Here we make our own magic with dancing foil. When rubbing a balloon on wool, a charge known as static electricity is created. This charge makes foil react. So here is a fun, exciting way to make your foil jump, pop, dance and be the life of the party!

MATERIALS:
- Empty water bottle
- Aluminium foil
- Balloons
- Hat (You could also use other wool or nylon items or your own hair!)

INSTRUCTIONS:
(1) Taking your sheet of foil, tear it into small pieces and roll them into tiny balls.
(2) Once you have enough balls, place them inside the empty water bottle and twist the cap back on.
(3) Next, blow up your balloons and tie the end.
(4) Rub your balloon onto the wool hat for around 30 seconds.
(5) Now, in one hand hold your bottle on its side. In the other hand, wave the balloon underneath the bottle and watch the foil balls dance around!\n
