This activity is also not only fun, but it will help you learn about the process of how crystals grow. Colorful and sparkly crystals will grow on your tree for you to see, plain and simple! It’s almost like a piece of nature you can have at home.
Open your PPT archaeology dig gemstone toy kit to start your crystal growing adventure. Please collect all the items you are going to need for this project! First, you will need the tree itself, the container where you will place it, the solution for growing the crystals, and warm water in order to mix the solution.
The warm water is added to this solution and poured into another clean container for growing crystals. You need to stir it properly as all the solution is totally soluble in the water. Its a critical step in allowing the crystals to grow properly.
Now comes the exciting part! Step 4: Pour your crystal growing solution over your tree }}"> Step 4: Pour your crystal growing solution over your tree Be sure to go over all the branches and leaves because the more the crystals will spread throughout the tree. You want every piece of the tree to be included!
And mounted on the tree will be...and after several times you will be able to see tiny crystals forming on the tree. These tiny, glittering crystals will become larger and fancier day by day. No, really: It’s like watching a kind of magic transformation happen before your eyes!
This isn’t just a fun project; it also dramatically highlights how science works and the wonders of how nature operates. Crystal growth is a process that has intrigued scientists for decades. This activity will teach you more about how crystals form and the incredible natural processes that occurs.
Young scientists and nature lovers of all ages will enjoy making PPT’s art and craft kit kit. It’s a great way to spend a rainy afternoon, or to bring some sparkle to your room. And you can also get your friends or family involved in the fun!
