This is such a fun project. Did this with my 9 and 10 yrs old and we had such a great time w it. The trees are easy to set up. I like that theres a base to keep them standing. We all had our turn ""watering"" the trees with the crystal growing solutions. We let it grow overnight and within 24 hours it grew crystals around the trees and it looks beautiful and colorful. 48 hrs later and it is still standing. Although this is such a simple project, my kids and i had fun making it and seeing the crystals grow was worth it!

This is a fun little experience to have with young kids, I did this with my 8-year-old daughter. The setup was easy and the outcome was cool, we would watch as it grew more crystals hour after hour and were impressed. The only thing we didn't like was the pouring of the growth liquid as it can get kind of messy. We found that putting a big piece of cardboard under the trays was helpful as the liquid will splash and drip off of the trees branches. The colors are very vivid and we are both very pleased with this set. I took pictures after only 24 hours and it is still growing as I type this review.
