Eruption Earth Science Lab
Build the Volcano. Trigger the Eruption. Explore the Science.
Eruption Earth Science Lab turns one of the most memorable science activities into a hands-on introduction to geology and cause and effect. The dramatic eruption gives children an immediate reason to ask what happened—and why.
PREPARE • PREDICT • ERUPT • OBSERVE
Set up the volcano activity, make a prediction about what will happen, perform the experiment, and watch the reaction unfold. Use the moment to talk about volcanoes, pressure, earth processes, and the difference between a model and a real geological event.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT
