Which paper absorbs best? Junior Infants

 We conducted an experiment to find out which paper absorbs water fastest . We used green food colouring to dye the water green. We used 3 types of paper, kitchen towel, newspaper and photocopying paper. I made a clothes line to hang the paper on. The kids had to choose the paper they thought would win. We pgave the papers 5 minutes to soak the water. The   kitchen towel was the clear winner. the majority went for the winner.
