Educational STEM kit Piano Potato - Create your own volcano

Children's STEM kit Explosive Volcano from Piano Potato turns a children's room into a real science laboratory. With it, children not only learn about volcanoes but build a three-dimensional model themselves, paint it and carry out an exciting experiment with a controlled eruption.

Activities with the kit combine creativity and science in one shared activity. First the volcano itself is made using the special mould and plaster, then comes artistic painting, and the finale is the science experiment with baking soda and citric acid, which releases carbon dioxide and forms bubbles and foam.

Work sequence:

1. Making the three-dimensional volcano shape using the mould and powdered plaster;
2. Colouring and decorating the dried volcano with the included paints and brush;
3. Triggering an experimental eruption through a reaction between baking soda and citric acid.
