Re-create a volcanic eruption with this science kit, which was created in association with the National Museum of Australia. Kids will have an absolute blast (pun intended!) building a model volcano and learning interesting facts about Pompeii.
Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 CE and preserved the city of Pompeii beneath a blanket of ash and pumice, until it was unearthed in the 1700s. Frozen in time were marvels of the Greco-Roman city - an amphitheatre, villas, and bakeries with bread still in the ovens!
Is adult supervision required? Yes, adult supervision is highly recommended. Chemicals contained within the kit are considered safe to use at home, but should be handled with care and according to the included instructions.
