Make Your Own Fossils

Have you ever found a fossil, or wondered how they are made? Explore the process of this activity! Things like seashells, sticks, or bones leave impressions in the dirt that can become filled with minerals coming from groundwater. The minerals harden in the mold left behind and show us what the object used to look like! Use glue, clay, and some objects found around the house or inside to create your own fossils!
