TURN YOUR FOOTPRINT INTO A FOSSILPRINT!

Here's how...

You will need:

Foil piepan
Sand
Water
Plaster of Paris
Popcicle stick

1. Fill a foil piepan with about three inches of damp sand.
2. Press their foot into the sand to make an impression.
3. Pour plaster of Paris into the footprint and allow to dry.
4. Write your initials and date into the plaster of Paris with a popcicle stick.
5. When dry, the fossils are ready. Remove from the foil piepan and remove sand from print.

Now you have a permanent "picture" of your footprint...fossilprint for years!
