Making Volcanos

To prepare for a trip to Mt. St. Helens, we made our own volcanos. We did the old school vinegar and baking soda, it was lots of fun. The kids had a great time making them and erupting them.
We started with an empty water bottle and a piece of cardboard. Then we covered the water bottle with some plaster strips I bought. After that dried they got to paint. Malachi got very creative and added grass and a river. I gave them some monopoly houses to make it a little more life-like and voila--- our very own volcanos.
