Then we looked carefully at a variety of crystals- salt, sugar, epsom salts, washing powder and found each crystal had its own special shape. We dissolved these in boiling water. We had fun making and eating jelly.
Then we made our own crystals dissolving them in boiling water. We had to decide what we wanted the crystals to grow on. Some people grew their crystals on tinsel, string, ribbon or paper shapes.
The epsom salts grew the quickest and the best.
