Product Overview

I recently tried out the National Geographic Ultimate Volcano Kit, and I am so impressed with the quality of this product. From the moment I opened the box, I knew that this was going to be a great experience. The kit comes with everything you need to create your own volcano model, including eruption powder, pop crystals, real volcanic rocks, a mold to create your own volcano form and realistic paint colors.

The instructions were easy to follow and made it simple to assemble the volcano form. Once assembled and painted, the result was amazing. The realistic paint colors gave it a lifelike look that was perfect for any science fair. Not only that but the included learning guide provided great educational information about volcanoes and their science.

The kit also comes with three times as much eruption powder as before to ensure more eruptions for added fun! Plus, the addition of pop crystals adds an exciting sound element that kids will love. This is definitely one of those classic STEM projects that will help teach kids about chemistry, geology and earth science in a fun way.

The real volcanic rocks included in this kit are also quite impressive. Kids can learn about different types of rocks created by volcanoes with a full color learning guide. It s also nice that the volcano mold is reusable so you can continue experimenting with different eruptions using common household items.

Overall, I highly recommend this National Geographic Ultimate Volcano Kit for anyone looking for an exciting hands on science project for kids ages 6 and up. The quality of materials is top notch and it s a great way to teach kids about volcanoes in a fun way while also learning some important scientific concepts along the way. Plus, with three times more eruption powder than before, there s sure to be plenty of eruptions for hours of fun!
