Pencils Through A Bag Experiment

- A sealable plastic bag - Water - Food coloring (optional) - 5 pencils - Large tray

Step 1

Keep poking more pencils through the bag. Notice no liquid leaks out!

Step 2

Once all the pencils have been added, place a tray below the bag and start removing the pencils. Notice now the water leaks out.

Step 3
