This crystal growing kit turns a packet of white powder and a colored seed into a spiky crystal on a shelf, over several days of waiting and checking. A grown-up handles the very hot water, then a child can place the seed and watch the crystal build up. Pick six colors for a group project, or one kit to try it first. It is part of our Toys & Games collection.
