George's Marvelous Medicine by Roald Dahl

By the end of our playtime, we had a gross vibrant pink, curdled, bubbly, frothy mixture.

I set out measuring scoops and a big mixing bowl, then Vin and his friend started concocting. I also knew from a recent baking soda experiment that some of the ingredients would react with each other to create different effects.

Using empty bottles in the recycling, I gave Vin colored water, milk, vinegar, and baking soda, along with washing up liquid, lemon juice, almond essence, face cream and toothpaste, aiming for a range of different colors, scents and textures. We read through the description of George’s cupboard raiding, looking for disgusting ingredients, and then looked in our own cupboards. Kranky, are out running going shopping, George's maternal grandmother bosses him around and. It is one of Dahl's shorter children's books. George’s Marvelous Medicine really lends itself to concoction making. George's Marvellous Medicine, Roald Dahl George's Marvellous Medicine is a book written by Roald Dahl and illustrated by Quentin Blake. One of our favorite things to do is turn stories into playtime so I knew we would end up playing along as we read. Vinnie loved the story we brought it home and read a chapter each night before bedtime. Recently Vin and I caught a reading of George’s Marvelous Medicine at our local library.
