Volcano model project

Make this paper mache volcano to learn more about volcanoes and the Earth. This is a fun activity for kids and parents alike!

Our oldest son, who's in 3rd grade, brought home the classic "build a volcano and make it explode" class project.

This Papier Mache Volcano was made for a creative homework as part of a school class themed project.
