Dear Parents and Supervising Adults,

SAFETY INFORMATION

HOW TO EXCAVATE THE SEA CREATURES

2. Proceed with the excavation as a

paleontologist would. A paleontologist is

a scientist who studies the history and

process of evolution by examining the

preserved traces of animals and plants,

often by digging up fossilized remains.

Divide your site into squares with the

help of the dry sponge. Use the chisel

and ruler to scratch a grid pattern into

the surface. The individual squares

should be about the size of the sponge.

Kit Contents

Please assist, support, and accompany your child while excavating the ocean creatures.

Read the manual together before starting the experiment and follow it. Also, please be

sure not to allow any of the pieces to get into the hands of small children, especially the

plaster pieces that are left over after excavating the figurines. These can be disposed of in

the household trash.

WARNING! Not suitable for children under 7 years. For use under adult supervision. Read

the instructions before use, follow them and keep them for reference.

This kit contains functional sharp edges or points. Do not injure yourself!

WARNING! Not suitable for children under 3 years. Choking hazard — small parts may be

swallowed or inhaled.

Follow the instruction manual when performing the excavation. Keep small

children and animals away from the experiment area. Do not eat or drink at the

experiment area. Process the plaster block slowly and moisten it to prevent the formation

of chips and dust. Do not place the plaster material in mouth or eyes. Clean all

equipment and the work area after use. Wash your hands after the experiment.

Keep the packaging and instructions as they contain important information.

1. Start by preparing a suitable workplace.

Ideally, find a room where it won’t

matter if a few pieces of plaster or a

few drops of water fall here and there.

You should have enough room available

on a level table surface that can risk

getting a little messy. Spread out some

old newspaper to protect the surface.

Get the excavation block, sponge,

hammer, chisel, and a bowl of water

ready. You will also need a small ruler.

Find all the sea

creatures!

Wow!

HOW TO EXCAVATE THE SEA CREATURES

Wow!

Real treasure!

3. Now start excavating in any one of the

search squares. First, soak the sponge

in the bowl of water, then place the

sponge on a square, and carefully

squeeze out the water.

6. Once you have recovered all of the

creatures, you will still have to clean off

any plaster remains that may be stuck

to them. Rinse them one by one under

running water, rubbing their surfaces

with the sponge. It is best to put the

stopper in the drain so you don’t lose

anything. Finally, dry your discoveries

with a paper towel.

5. Now, continue step by step in the other

squares just as you did in the first, until

you gradually uncover all of the

creatures.

4. The plaster in the square will then

become softened by the water, and you

can use the chisel to scratch away the

surface. When you come to harder

spots, wet the plaster again to soften it.

Use the hammer and chisel to carefully

dig around them. As soon as you come

across an object, dig around it gently.

Dig very carefully, removing only small

bits of plaster at a time, or else you risk

damaging the object.

CHECK IT OUT

After excavating and cleaning your creatures, you

should thoroughly wash your hands and clean

the workplace. You can throw the newspaper

with any plaster bits into the household trash.

Excavate like a true

archaeologist

A is essentially the study RCHAEOLOGY

of old things. Scientists who work in this

field of study are called archaeologists.

They search for preserved works of art,

remains, and tools that belonged to ancient

cultures and civilizations. Archaeologists

use these objects that have been left behind

to gain new information about the

development of humankind. Although you

won’t find the same kinds of artifacts in

your plaster block, you’re excavating in

much the same methodical way that a real

archaeologist would!

Why search in a grid?

Archaeologists often divide their

excavation sites into a grid of

squares, allowing them to record

the exact location of each artifact.

This helps archaeologists come up

with ideas about what the

individual parts of a discovery

may have been used for, which can

lead to theories about the ancient

culture as a whole.

locating small parts

The waste excavated during an

archaeological dig is carefully sifted

and examined again to make sure that

no tiny artifacts that might be

concealed in the dirt are missed. You

don’t have to do this for your ocean

dig excavation! Simply compare your

findings with the list of contents

provided with this kit.

Not all archaeologists work on

land and dig in the dirt for

artifacts. Some also dive to the

bottom of seas, lakes, rivers, wells

or caves in search of exciting

discoveries. Old shipwrecks are

particularly interesting. In 1984,

the researcher Barry Clifford

discovered a shipwreck and found

the greatest known pirate

treasure of all time. This treasure

was more than 250 years old and

worth millions of dollars.
