Dinoworks and Crystal Growing Kits

Good Will has a new listing for Dinoworks and Crystal Growing Kits.  These would make nice gifts. Kids like to grow crystals.  Here is a review of various kits.  Here are directions for rock salt, sugar, alum, borax, and sodium acetate crystals.  Make it a lab challenge.  Use the same directions and quantities of each salt, sugar, alum, etc. to see which forms the best (largest?) crystals.  I am not adverse to kits.  I would rather buy the key materials and make the activity a lab challenge.  The kits do make nice gifts.
