The eggs, symbolising our pearly whites, were submerged in six different liquids - water, orange juice, vinegar, full-fat coke, milk, and coffee! The catch? The eggshells mimicked our precious enamel. After eagerly awaiting the results, what we discovered yesterday was egg-ceptional! Some eggs were stained, some shells became rough, and the vinegar had a truly surprising effect… turning the shell rubbery! A stinky afternoon, indeed, but a valuable lesson learned. Year 4 now has a newfound appreciation for the importance of dental care! #ScienceIsFun #EggExperiment #DentalHealth Let's keep those smiles shining bright! Don't forget to swipe through our photos to see the egg-citing journey unfold!
