Magic Water Drawings

Materials: 1 cup Epsom salt; 1 cup water; dark or light construction paper; crayons; paint brushes

What to do: To prepare the "magic water" boil water, and stir in salt until dissolved. Beavers draw their picture or design in light crayon on dark construction paper. They can then brush over their picture with the magic water, and leave it to dry. This will result in a neat, crystallized finish on the crayon markings. The magic water can also be coloured or the picture can be drawn on white paper, which gives a sparkly finished look!
