Magic Rocks

It's been awhile, but I grew these for my first grade Sunday school class when we studied the creation story in the Bible. You are supposed to place the rocks first, but I let each of my 8 kids drop 'their' rock in after the solution was in halfway. We did it a small goldfish bowl. Of course they loved it! It's very easy and safe if you follow instructions. I explained the "water" we used want actually water, and they mustn't touch or drink it, but God brought the universe into existence from nothing in a process we humans call "the Big Bang Theory." I explained how our time line says creation took billions of years and the Bible says "days" but God is outside of our timeline - in Eternity. The Bible says God doesn't measure time the way we do. I don't think there is any incompatibility between Faith in God and science, and that is the way I teach about God. It is merely the story of the four blind men and the elephant. :) This kit is great for kids (and even some of us adults - LOL)
