Now get them to turn the now empty bottle into a water rocket.
You need a cork a bicycle pump (a foot pump or track pump are best) and a needle valve (one of those things for pumping up foot balls). Fill the bottle half full of water and insert the cork in the end. Then push the needle valve into the cork and mount the thing point upwards so that is can fly free. Now attach the pump to the needle valve and pump and keep pumping until your feet are wet;-).
I must get the kids to do this again now I have a video camera.
