1.Collect the plastic syringe. Make sure that it has an open end.
2.Smear petroleum jelly on the inside of the syringe.
3.Mix five large spatulas-full of damp sand with a little water in a plastic cup and load it into the syringe.
4.Block the open end of the syringe with a finger or thumb and push down on the plunger as hard as possible,
5.Stop pressing, remove your finger, carefully push out the sand pellet and leave it on a piece of paper to dry. Label it ‘sand and water only’.
6.Mix four large spatulas-full of damp sand with one spatula-full of clay and repeat steps 3, 4 and 5. Label the pellet ‘sand, water and clay’.
7.Mix four large spatulas-full of damp sand with one spatula-full of plaster of Paris and repeat steps 3, 4 and 5. Label the pellet ‘sand, water and plaster of Paris’.
8.If you are trying other mixtures, follow the same steps and label them appropriately.
9.Leave the ‘rocks’ to dry overnight.
