God Can Make You Great! | Elephant Toothpaste – Small Version

At Home Version:

BIG VERSION!

This lesson, otherwise known as the Elephant Toothpaste experiment, can also be used to teach about anger and self-control.

You can talk about the explosive results of not controlling your anger and the damage that it can do to you and everyone around you.

What you need (at home version – recommended for most situations):

  • 100ml Volume 40x (can be found at most beauty supply stores)
  • Yeast (Fleischmann’s Active Dry Yeast works well but don’t buy the quick-rising variety)
  • Dish soap
  • Food coloring
  • 40ml Warm water
  • Something to stir with

Lesson:

great1

God can make a LOT out of a little.

Sometimes we don’t think we have a lot to offer. We are insignificant.

You may say, “I am not the smartest or the most talented”

BUT God can make something amazing out of every one of us NO MATTER WHAT!

Here we are

Get out biggest flask

We have so little talents and abilities to offer to God

Pour in the volume 40 (100ML)

We put in our low self-esteem

Add soap

We add all of the problems that we have

Add food coloring / Mix it all together

But GOD is what makes all of the difference. He has a plan for each of our lives.

If we give ourselves to Him completely He can make MORE of us than we ever dreamed was possible

Pour yeast into warm water in a separate, smaller container

  • 1 packet of yeast
  • 40 ML of water
  • Mix for 30 seconds

And now let’s see what God can do with the little we give Him

Pour it in

    Can you use a flask smaller than 5000ml for the bigger version. Having troubles acquiring one.

    • Absolutely, however the 5000ml flask allows the pressure to build and causes the higher geyser. The smaller flasks will work but just not go quite as high.
