Mining for Gold
Materials
- Small rocks
- Gold or silver spray paint
Directions
- Spray some small rocks with gold or silver spray paint to resemble gold or silver nuggets.

- Give younger children some directions, like cold or hot, so they don't get too frustrated.
- Give older children a treasure map to follow.
