Diving Sub: Classic 1950's cereal box toy! Code TS798010
We love this science toy by Toysmith! Simply fill the bubble chamber with baking powder and place it in water. As the denser than water sub sinks water enters the bubble chamber, allowing the baking soda to react... producing carbon dioxide bubbles and the sub rises again. This process can repeat several times.
