Mad Science Camp: Five Below

Five Below is in the same shopping mall as Dollar Tree and Michaels in my town.  Here is where I shop for ideas and inexpensive supplies.   Five Below has materials for Science Camp: this Stalagmite Kit (similar to Magic Rocks with sodium silicate and mineral salts), Fossil Dig Kit, Play doh (buy as comparison with DIY Play Dough), a Yeti-bot ($3 is reasonable to try a solar toy.), or this Spider-bot at $5, Sidewalk chalk (as comparison with DIY sidewalk chalk), and nail polish (marbled paperweight rocks.). Right now, shipping is a flat fee, $5.  I like to buy commercial toys and compare them to DIY.  Right now we can use all the ideas we can find.
