Fun and safe for all ages
See the awesome power of volcanoes in
a beautiful bottle
Volcanoes
Volcanoes capture the imagination. They are the connection between the earth’s surface and powerful unseen forces underground. We can only observe the surface features of real volcanoes, and have to stay at a safe distance from active volcanoes. But with Volcano in a Bottle, we can play with simulated volcanoes in a safe and interactive way. Shake the bottle and watch channels of gas form underground and erupt at the surface! What can you learn about our world by studying the moving plumes of sand? See the world in a bottle of sand!
More than just a volcano
Volcano in a Bottle is a thought provoking miniaturized version of the earth’s crust that is safe and inviting to play with. The bottle is scratch and shatter resistant, and BPA free! Create beautiful volcanoes and see colorful patterns of “magma” form with each eruption!
The Volcano Challenges
How many different patterns of volcanic eruptions can you make?
Click here for the Volcano in a Bottle challenges!
Can you make volcanoes along the side of the bottle? Can you change the pattern of the magma flow and shift the location of the volcano vents? Can you make baby volcano vents around the rim of the bottle? Can you make the legendary Central Volcano erupt from the middle of the bottle? Feel the weight of the shifting sand as you move and shake the bottle — With time you will find ways to catch “big air” in the sand to power more interesting volcanoes! .
