Erupting Botanicals Aurora is your passport to a moment of magical science and sensory delight. Set on a deep black base, the tub reveals shimmering colours and real petals, plant- and earth-based powders, and a fizzing action that turns water into a miniature, luminous eruption. Each 100ml tub is hand-mixed and designed to be reused again and again, with a full recyclable container that keeps the experience sustainable.
What makes Aurora truly special is the combination of nature and wonder. You’ll find plant-based ingredients, real dried petals, mica shimmer, and safe fizzing chemistry that bursts into colour when water meets the blend. Colors may vary slightly from batch to batch, adding a unique signature to every eruption. The result is not just a visual treat—it’s a gentle, kid-friendly chemistry demonstration you can watch unfold as part of a playful learning moment.
How it works is delightfully simple: just add water to the mix and watch the magic happen. The fizzing action comes from a classic acid-base reaction using baking soda (sodium hydrogen carbonate) and citric acid, with additional plant-based powders and oils to create an immersive, sensory experience. The colours bloom, petals drift through the foam, and the surface becomes a tiny theatre of colour and texture. It’s perfect for curious minds who love hands-on discovery, storytelling, or a creative bath-time ritual.
Why Erupting Botanicals Aurora stands apart
- Plant-based, hand-mixed magic: Each botanical is lovingly blended from natural plant-based materials, with real petals and earth-inspired powders that create depth and texture in every eruption.
- Visual and tactile payoff: Shimmering colours, petal fragments, and a soft bubbling foam deliver a multisensory experience beyond ordinary bath or science kits.
- Eco-conscious packaging: A 100ml plastic tub that’s reusable and fully recyclable, designed to reduce waste while delivering a big wow factor.
- Educational, not intimidating: Ideal for supervised play to explore acid-base reactions, color mixing, and cause-and-effect in a safe, controlled way.
- Transparent, practical safety notes: While crafted for fun, the kit uses chemicals (sodium hydrogen carbonate, citric acid, sodium isethionate) that require proper handling and adult supervision. It’s designed to teach good safety habits alongside science.
Who this is for
- Parents and caregivers seeking engaging, safe STEM play that combines chemistry with nature.
- Little scientists who enjoy hands-on experiments, colour exploration, and sensory storytelling.
- Party activities that spark curiosity and create memorable, photo-worthy moments.
- Bath-time enthusiasts looking for a magical, calming, and visually appealing routine (with supervision).
Ideal use scenarios
- At-home science sessions: set up a simple station with water and a shallow dish to observe the eruption and colour reveal.
- Party science activities: a captivating demonstration that doubles as an activity and a keepsake moment as colours rinse away.
- Sensory play for curious little ones: texture, scent, and colour to engage touch, sight, and smell under careful supervision.
- Learning moments: discuss why colour changes happen, how gas forms, and how different materials interact in a safe, age-appropriate context.
Safety and handling—important considerations for supervising adults
- This potion kit is for use under adult supervision. The fizzy mixtures involve acids and bases; misuse can cause injury. Follow the included instructions and safety guidelines closely.
- Guard against eye contact. If splashes occur, rinse eyes with plenty of clean water and seek help if irritation persists.
- Ensure the work area is well-lit, ventilated, and free of food storage nearby. Use a sturdy table and have water on hand for rinsing and cleanup.
- Dispose of chemicals responsibly and do not pour down the sink. Follow local regulations for disposal of household chemicals.
- All ingredients and equipment are listed in the kit’s safety information. The facility where this product is made may come into contact with common allergens (such as wheat, dairy, celery, eggs, nuts), so please take the allergen note into account when supervising and planning activities.
- H315/H319-like guidance applies: avoid contact with eyes; wear appropriate eye protection; wash hands thoroughly after handling.
What’s included and what you’ll need to complete the experience
- What’s in the tub: Real petals, plant-based powders, baking soda (sodium hydrogen carbonate), citric acid, mica and glitter, water, essential oil, epsom salt, fractionated coconut oil, and additional safe components for texture and scent.
- What you’ll need separately (not always included): A dish or bowl to mix, water, and a supervising adult to guide the activity.
- Storage: Reseal the tub and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve colour and aroma for future eruptions.
In short, Erupting Botanicals Aurora invites children and families to explore colour, texture, and bubbly chemistry in a single, captivating experience. It’s more than a toy or a science kit—it’s an invitation to curiosity, creativity, and shared moments of discovery. Add water, unleash colour, and watch science come alive in your hands.
Handmade Botanical Sensory Pot
Bring nature into sensory play with our beautifully handcrafted Botanical Sensory Pots. Each pot is carefully created by hand using a unique combination of coloured powders, dried botanicals and natural textures to create a stunning sensory experience that encourages imaginative play, exploration and creativity.
Please Note
Every Botanical Sensory Pot is individually handcrafted and arranged by hand before leaving our workshop. The product photographs show each pot at the point it is freshly made.
Because these pots contain fine powders and lightweight dried botanicals, it is completely normal for the contents to move during packing, handling and transit through the postal system. This means your pot may arrive with some of the coloured powder having settled or moved upwards, and the design may look different from the photographs.
This is an expected characteristic of the product and is not considered a fault or defect. It does not affect the quality, quantity, safety or play value of your Botanical Sensory Pot in any way. Every pot contains the same carefully measured ingredients and is made to the same high standard.
In fact, no two Botanical Sensory Pots are ever identical. Each one is handmade, making every pot beautifully unique.
Thank you for supporting a small UK business where every product is made with care, attention to detail and a love of creative play.
Please Note: As this is a handmade product containing fine powders and dried botanicals, the contents may naturally shift during transit. Your pot may not look identical to the product photographs on arrival, but this is completely normal and does not affect the quality or amount of product received.
