Ages 10+
Bring a little magic to science with the 4M Crystal Growing Magical Unicorn Terrarium. Kids can grow four colourful crystals, then use their creations to build a sparkling unicorn world inside their own terrarium.
Following the included instructions, young scientists can watch their crystals form and grow over 4 to 7 days. Once ready, they can add the unicorn figurines and decorative stickers to create a magical scene to display and enjoy.
Made by 4M, a brand known for clever, hands on science and educational kits, this activity brings STEM learning and creativity together in a way that feels more like making and experimenting than a science lesson.
