STEAM Rainbow Experiment

Paper Towel, Two Water Cups, and Markers I used two plastic cups and filled them half way with water. Using a paper towel, fold it along the perforation so that it's doubled. | Washable Markers in a Variety of Colors Make sure the markers are washable. Have fun coloring the paper towel. | Fold the paper towel lengthwise and watch the water climb up the paper towel creating a lovely rainbow effect. |
