Help ! Did anyone buy the Smithsonian "Crystal Growing Kit" ?

**Jolie Rouge** · 02-07-2005, 07:04 PM

We bought one but Michael has lost the instructions.

The web site www.nsitoys.com is under construction and I have received no answers to my emails.

Does anyone have the instructions at their house ??

We were doing this as a Cub Scout project and it is really frustrating. We have all the materials but not the ratios for the chemicals.

HELP !

Sure hope someone can help you hon. Didn't know such a thing existed. Gosh the science projects for kids today sound so cool.

isn't there a 1-800 number on the box that you can call?

Does this look like it may be instructions you need?

You can buy the kits at Walmarts for $19.99 around Christmas. Now they are marked down to $10.

Thanks. I have to go into town tomorrow and I'll check it out. Have 3 grandkidlettes turning 16 this year and the 2 boys love science stuff.
