Monday, it was Magic Rocks. I believe I had picked these up as a possible activity after Luken's hernia surgery in March, but never got around to it. I figured it would kill some time!
While I got things set up, the kiddos did some drawings...
First step was to arrange the rock pellet thingies on the bottom of the tank.
Next, we added water to the toxic goop that you are not supposed to touch.
Stir it up!
After pouring it in, it was time to watch the rocks grow!!
It said to wait 6 hours after the first batch, though the box said they'd be grown within a couple of hours!!!
Getting started...
About an hour later, we had something to look at!
Later that day, we added the second batch of rocks, which are supposedly the ones that will REALLY grow.
And, the final product. It got kind of messy at the end. Oh, well. It was sort of fun. Something to do on a rainy day. Probably not to be repeated, ha!!
