Volcano
My friend has a science project where she has to make a volcano and have it erupt. The trick is that she can't use vinegar and baking soda to make it erupt. The kind of volcano she has to make needs to erupt calmly and kinda of just ooze out, no violent explosions.

she needs to make her own volcano., let's say., out of molding clay., or maybe., use a cardboard to make a cone, cover it with clay, punch a hole on top and place a test tube inside with its mouth on the tip of the volcano., half-fill the test tube with baking soda. powder i think., when your setup is complete, pour your vinegar on your test tube and your volcano will erupt. white stuff will ooze out.
to make it more realistic, try putting red or orange food color in your vinegar so that it will look like lava., I'm not pretty sure about the idea of putting food color on your vinegar but I've already tried putting vinegar on baking soda/powder i think, and it works.
