Grow your own Mystical Garden

Watching crystals grow...
the perfect scientific "snow day" activity.

First, there's the simple setup,
then the adding of the "mystical" liquid
(otherwise know as vinegar).

Next, sit back and watch your crystals start to magically grow...

and grow...

and grow...

...until you have your very own lush, indoor, crystal garden,
all in one day!

Tasty Science

A kit made for all those who love to mix, experiment,

My daughter got one for Christmas.

She went straight to work and started mixing,

carefully measuring,

and testing on various "guinea pigs",

So fun! She now makes carbonated drinks for any friend that enters our door!
The experiments are fun........... and educational.

The Perfect Group Game!

At the Pointy Pencil, we carry many, MANY varieties of J-I-N-G-O (educational Bingo with a theme). Themes include: seasonal, math, science, religious, holiday, etc.

It is the perfect game for a large group (up to 30 people)..

a perfect combination of learning and fun.

Today, I was the mom in charge of games at my daughter's 5th grade class Christmas party. I brought in "Merry Christmas J-I-N-G-O".

We used red and green M&M's for our markers. It was SO fun! The kids really enjoyed reading the clues outloud to their classmates. Each child who got a J-I-N-G-O (5 in a row) received a pack of gum.

The clues were so interesting, they made the kids think.
For instance,
"The Christmas flower is... the Poinsettia,"
or
"Hans Brinker wore these... silver skates."

Stop in and pick up your Christmas J-I-N-G-O today...
a great game for those large family gatherings.
For ages 3 to 100!

You'll be smiling with children this holiday when you play this game!
