Family Fun Night

Our Family Fun Night activity for the week was a little science project :) It actually took one full day to complete! After dinner on Friday, the kids made this plaster and poured it into the volcano mold.
We had to let our volcano dry over night.
Then the next day we painted it.
working very hard together to make it look like a "real" volcano!
Painting away!
After dinner, it was time to make our volcano "EXPLODE"
watching dad pour the vinegar in
Here comes the lava
wonder what it feels like?
BOOM
After our fun volcano experiment, Kyle decided to use a 2 liter bottle to make an even BIGGER explosion, haha!

What a fun project. I bought a volcano kit too, but we haven't done it yet...maybe when it's a bit cooler!

What a fun experiment for the kids...and Kyle too :-) I love having the chance to do little projects with the girls too.
