How to Make a Volcano



The defacto volcano of sorts is certainly exciting, but probably isn't perfect, because it lasts all but a second or two. Anyway, here are my tips for enjoying volcano fun:

1. Let the kids build the volcano themselves... preferably outdoors with no limits to size and materials.

2. Let the kids pour the vinegar themselves... they get to feel confident in what they CAN do in this world where they feel limited.

3. Sing Jimmy Buffets song, "I don't know where I'm a gonna go when the vol- cano blows!"

4. Feed the kids chocolate afterwards. Then their mouths look like volcanoes too. ;)
