    Crystals can form when a supersaturated liquid that contains a dissolved mineral cools. In this activity, a supersaturated solution was made using water and the powder provided (potentially borax). The water caused the water molecules to move further away from each other so that more of powder could dissolve into the solution. Once the solution reaches a point where it cannot dissolve any more powder, it becomes supersaturated. As the solution cools ( or in our case gets to room temperature) , the water molecules come closer together again causing the forming crystals to cling to the paper structures. We did a similar type of activity in our class using borax and warm water. I'm in 7th Grade. Love from India
    Yours Sincerely

    Hi Jackie, just wanted to say that YES there ARE flamingos and llamas in the desert! Here in Chile we have them in places called “Salares” that are near the “Altiplano” :) i know is a little weird to imagine, but happens. The atacama desert has a lot of flora and fauna!

    Update: She loved the Magical Garden version (Zen Garden). So much fun!
    There's a tree and cactus. So, you can grow crystals twice. The amount of water is the same for both BUT the amount of crystal powder is different. Makes me think the surface area of the cardboard is why the amount of water is different in the stand alone terrariums.

    This is almost like an advanced/faster chia pet. I wish they explained the chemistry bc for kids it's actually pretty cool. I would be interested in letting them grow smaller shrubs/greenery or an animal base and seeing the effects of surface area etc. Even letting them drop dye (with understanding placement and color theory) onto the base paper that's white so the crystals grow whatever color you decided. (Yes it would be possible to do, just more expensive) or a base with multiple sections and you measure out the amount of powder from a jar based on the surface area of the item you will place there. Idk. This is a cool starting point but really it could go from cute to super educational in a heartbeat. (I'm a biochemist so that's where my mind went. Also they could have had a stronger base material to support the crystals but thats ok)
    EDIT (I did chip instead of Chia)

    There are leftover crystals in the bottom because the water has reached saturation. Meaning the water can only hold so much of the growing powder, once the water is “full” the remaining crystals will not dissolve. Very cool video.

Mine are much smaller kits that took longer to grow but if you add some aluminum foil in the same one I got from dollar tree, you get a different type of crystals that are white no matter the color the solution you originally made was. And they are even more fragile than the original ones and that says alot. Its magnificent

    Given how semi-soluable the powder is and how fragile it becomes when it “crystallizes”, I’m inclined to say that it’s most just table salt. It’s pulled along with the water it’s dissolved in through the cardboard fixture, and as the water evaporates it leaves the salts behind, allowing it to reform and solidify into a crystallized form.
