How do you create the volcano eruption?
The eruption is triggered by mixing household baking soda (bicarbonate of soda) and vinegar inside the crater chamber. Explore more kits at our science kits hub.
Are the eruption ingredients included in the box?
The plaster mold, paints, and tools are included; standard kitchen vinegar and baking soda must be supplied from home.
Can you erupt the volcano more than once?
Yes, the solid plaster volcano can be rinsed and erupted repeatedly as often as desired.
What age is the 4M Volcano Kit suitable for?

How long does the plaster take to dry?
The casting plaster sets firm within 30–45 minutes, but should cure overnight before painting.
