Mummification

What an exciting afternoon! We have mummified a tomato! First the children washed the tomato with hand sanitiser to get rid of any bacteria. Then they used a spoon to scoop out the inside. Finally they covered the tomato with a salt mixture. Now we will leave the tomatoes for a few weeks to see what happens. We also left two without the salt mixture so we can compare them.
