We're going to revamp the classic volcano science project by giving it a modern, sustainable twist that will blow your class away. The key: Mycelium. When mixed with agricultural byproducts, mushroom mycelium can be grown into a composite form that’s compostable and adds nutrients back to the soil. Outdated materials like paper-mâché can’t compete with that! These materials are not only more environmentally friendly, but they will also demonstrate your knowledge of biology, since you are working with living organisms after all.
We wanted our mycelium volcano’s eruption to be just as epic as the volcano itself, that’s why we chose Elephant Toothpaste! Elephant Toothpaste is kid-safe and demonstrates a chemical reaction that produces a large amount of foam that looks just like toothpaste squirting out of a tube. You can get the recipe: www.scientificamerican.com/article/make-elephant-t…
