fossils By Linda

I have used plaster of paris to have the kids make their own "fossils". They can place a shell or other small object into the compound as it hardens to make a "fossil".

I have also used M&M cookies as a digging exercise. They have to "dig" for bones (M&M's) while removing the dirt (cookie) with a toothpick.

Have fun!
