National Geographic Crystal Growing Craft Kit for a Colorful Crystal Garden

Watch as crystals grow from the branches of the included evergreen and cherry trees, with the first crystals visible in minutes and the trees fully covered in as little as 6 hours. Use the 5 watercolor pens in the kit to color each tree, then grow crystals in the chosen colors. Combine artistic creativity with science in this crystal growing set, which allows you to color your crystal trees with the included watercolor markers. Once the trees are placed in the crystal growing solution, crystals will start to form, taking on the colors chosen for the trees. This kit includes 3 tree bases, 2 cherry trees, 1 evergreen tree, 5 washable markers, 3 packs of crystal-growing liquid, an instruction booklet, a genuine geode specimen, and a full-color learning guide packed with facts about crystal growth and more. The fast-growing crystals make this an exciting crystal growing kit, with results visible quickly. If crystals fall off, simply add them back to the tree base with a little water and regrow the tree. This is a fantastic toy for creative and curious boys and girls, a great science kit gift, or STEM project.
