Ultimate Volcano Kit





Just like other products I have reviewed from Discover Dr. Cool the Ultimate Volcano kit is just as fun. Your child gets to pain the volcano and then mix up the volcano mix and enjoy an erupting volcano.

My girls had been asking for one of these and Discover Dr. Cool came through with an awesome project for them to do. They loved it.

A video will be coming soon and I will post the link once it is up.


You can purchase Dr. Cool's Volcano here or on Amazon.


What Dr. Cool Has to say about their product.
  • * Make a volcano erupt and collect 3 real volcanic specimens (pumice, obsidian arrowhead, and a geode)
    * Ultimate kit includes: Volcano Mold, plaster, paints, brush, eruption powder, and 3 real specimens
    * Perfect science fair project or gift for kids 6-12 that are interested in volcanoes, earth science or geology
    * Full-Color Info and Activity guides were written by teachers are filled with cool science facts about volcanoes and puzzles to solve
    * Winner of Gold Award from Family Review Center, Kids Product of the year from Creative Child Magazine, and Seal of Approval from the Toy Directory
     

We've turned this classic science experiment into the ultimate hands-on volcano experience! First you'll use the plaster and mold included to make your volcano chamber. Then you'll use the brush and paints included in the kit to decorate it. Next you'll make the volcano erupt over and over again with the eruption powder (included). Plus you'll get to examine 3 genuine volcanic specimens including: a real geode, an obsidian arrowhead, and a floating piece of volcanic rock called pumice. The information guide will teach you all about your specimens as well as how volcanoes form and why they erupt. Also included is an activity booklet with 10 fun games, puzzles, and challenges to complete. Because everything is included in the kit, you won't need to run to the store for additional supplies. If you're doing this project for the science fair, you'll love how nice this volcano looks---it's way better then those paper mache volcanoes. This is the perfect science kit for anyone interested in geology, earth science, or volcanoes.

SPECIAL TIPS:
  • Some tips for casting a successful volcano: the Ultimate Volcano directions call for one cup of water to be added to the plaster, and this amount works for most customers. However, if you have added a full cup and the mix still seems too thick to pour into the mold, stir in a little extra water, adding a bit at a time (up to 1/4 cup). The ideal consistency should be thick, but pourable. We also recommend working quickly and using cold water throughout, since warm or hot water can make the plaster harden more quickly.

Pratipad Multipurpose Silicone Pot Holder






Personally I use the silicone mitts but my husband finds that they are too tight on his hands and hard to get off so he prefers regular pot holders, so he was very excited to see these come in and said throw away the old cloth square pot holders and make room for these.

He is funny and when he likes something he really likes something. So these pot holders have been claimed by him even through they are purple and a greyish blue. Hey he can't have everything. These are great for baking, cooking, and opening jars. We also use these as trivets to protect our table from hot pans while eating dinner.

You can purchase the Pratipad Mulitpurpose Silicone Pot Holder on Amazon.

Lavender Eye Pillow

The girls and I like to do spa treatments like mud masks, manicure, and pedicures,so this Lavender Eye Pillow fit right in for a after mud mask treat to really get relaxing while our toes and nails were getting done. 

Love this pillow. I think just taking about a 20 minute cat nap with this is the way to go. So refreshing and calming. The scent is a bit strong at first but you get used to is and I am sure over time it will dissipate. With a lifetime warranty if it runs out of scent I am sure they will replace it for you, so you can't go wrong.

 Comes in four colors and settles on your eyes easily and feels just right at least to me.


You can purchase the Lavender Eye Pillow on Amazon.

Medical Alert ID Bracelets for an affordable price


I am really excited to tell my readers about this product. Our family has looked at medical alert bracelets and they have been too expensive to buy. I believe something you need should not be expensive and finally I found a product that provides medical bracelets at a fraction of others on the market. Mediband has a bracelet for almost any ailment and if they don't have one for yours you can get a write on bracelet and make your own or have a Mediband plus which gives you even another option. 

There are so many colors and designs to choose from and they even have one for our families blood disorder so I will be ordering these for me and my girls soon. You can also get ICE bracelets so if you have a child you can put in your information in case they get separated from you. Available in many countries and languages. Piece of mind from medical and personal emergencies in a low price is just what was needed. Thank you Medibrand. 

Mediband also makes Fever Mates which is a sticker that adheres to your child's forehead so you can monitor yourchild's fever for 48 hours without getting out the thermometer to wake them up. My mother always taught me when your child sleeps they are healing, and this is one way I can make sure that my child's fever is staying down while letting them get the rest they need.

Another great product for your family.
