There is also a method that uses lemon juice, yeast, and hydrogen peroxide. You can read the full directions at the Crystal Clear Science web site in the related links below.
There are many ways you could make an electric volcano. You can wire the system so that the ingredients mix when you press a button for example.
Make a volcano shaped form with a cup in the center out of something like play dough. Then dump 1 tablespoon baking soda, 3 drops red food dye, ¼ cup of vinegar, and 3 drops liquid soap into the volcano and watch it erupt.
Modeling Clay, Vinegar, Red Food Coloring, and Baking Soda for the volcano. To avoid a mess lots of newspaper and maybe even a vinyl tablecloth and/or poster board under the clay. The vinegar and food coloring mixture will create lots of liquid at the bottom of your volcano as it "erupts." Step 1. Make your own unique volcano design and form a cup at the top of the volcano to hold your vinegar liquid. Pour the vinegar, and several drop of red food coloring until you see the mixture begin to drip from the top of the volcano. Step 2. Next take a plastic spoon and scoop a huge spoonful baking powder into the top of your volcano. Step 3. The mixture will begin to blend together and form a chemical reaction. You will see the volcano "erupting" down your clay volcano. Step 4. Allow it to continue to drip and watch the fun. You can pick up your entire volcano mess when you are finished and toss it in the trash or drain some of the color in your sink (be sure to wash all traces of the red food coloring from your sink) and let the volcano air dry for later use. Optional: Embellish the area around your volcano with greenery or a paintings. You can also place the baking soda and food coloring first and then the vinegar. Try it both ways.
materials required for making a model of volcano is a plastic bottle, baking soda, vinegar, paper , cardboard , red food colour and glue. Out of these u can create it easily.
It's really easy...just make a model of a volcano any way you want, and in the opening part, mix baking soda and vinegar to make it look like it's erupting. Red food coloring makes it more realistic...

vinegar or baking soda
alka seltzer it has this bubbly stuff that makes it erupt higher than baking soda.
An volcanic eruption is NOT caused by a chemical reaction. It is caused by a PHYSICAL change. Gasses dissolved in the magma effervesce as the pressure on the magma drops in proximity to the land surface.

For making a volcano? When the two are added together, they cause a small explosion, making it look like a small model of a volcano is errupting like a real one.

a flat surface like a piece of cardboard for the platform and surround a water bottle with clay to form a mound but let the opening hole of the water bottle stay open. If you want you can add little trees surrounding the volcano. To make it erupt just put in the active ingredients in the water bottle and watch it explode! Some active ingredients are coke and mentos, or baking soda and vinegar.

Paper mache(shape of volcano) Place bag inside that WILL NOT LEAK Baking soda & red food coloring in bag pour vinegar in bag (It's the oldest trick in the book)
Baking soda volcanoes are normally used to demonstrate how the pressure increase that occurs in a volcano's magma chamber can cause a volcanic eruption to occur. This is because the mixture of baking soda and vinegar causes carbon dioxide gas to be produced which causes a pressure increase in the model volcano as well as causing the mixture to foam. The rapid increase in volume and pressure forces the mixture out of the top of the model volcano which is a useful analogy for the process that occurs in a real volcano.
