How do I make a volcano for a science project?

Chemical Volcano

1 Empty 25 ounce plastic bottle
1 Tbsp liquid dish detergent
A Few drops red food coloring
1 cup vinegar
1-1/2 cups warm water
2 Tbsp baking soda
dirt

Build a mound of dirt around the bottle, keeping the top of the bottle open. Combine the liquid detergent and food coloring in the bottle. Add 1 cup vinegar. Pour in the warm water almost to the top. In a spoon, blend the baking soda with a little water to moisten it
and then quickly pour into the bottle. Stand back and watch your volcano...this is best done outside.
