- Start with plasma (represented by yellow food coloring + water)
- Add red blood cells (cheerios soaked in red food coloring + water)
- Notice what happened to the color of blood!
- Add white blood cells (white marshmellows)
- Add platelets (tiny pieces of a peppermint marshmellow)
- Notice how sticky the platelets are!
