Magic Rocks!

What interesting little things.

So what do you do? Pour a powder into the water, wait a few days, and the crystals grow?

You mix the solution with some water, pour it into the jar, or clear plastic canister that may be provided, add the rocks, and they grow within hours.

Hmm. I guess you were just very unlucky with the alignment of your rocks?

I assumed that I just didn't mix the solution and water well enough, actually. As soon as I poured it onto the rocks the solution itself separated from the water and settled at the bottom.

It's pretty bad if you can't successfully play with something that's meant for 10 year olds.

For 10 year olds with adult supervision! D:

...I'm so not helping my case.

Use deionized water next time

But it's not magical.
