    5 Stars
    Great activity for volcano loving kids
    Bought this activity to do with young boys I take care of. They loved making and decorating the Volcano with me, although most steps with the plaster had to be done by adults (me). The explosion part was their favorite and it all worked smoothly when I followed the directions. Highly recommend for volcanic fun at home.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Great product, but I don't recommend using the pop crystals.
    Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2024
    My 4-year-old and I had a lot of fun making this. Besides teaching him about volcanoes, it also helped instill patience, waiting for the volcano to dry, then painting and waiting again. The only downside was that when we used the pop crystals, the paint started to peel off. Otherwise, it's a great product. The photo is after we used the pop crystals.
