Tumblin You Treasure
Put the rocks you find in a rock tumbler to make them sparkle. Tumblers are pretty easy to use, but you need an adult to help you. Here’s a quick get-started list.
Choose rocks about the same size and hardness.
Rinse o the rocks.
Place the rocks in the tumbling container.
Add grit and water according to the instructions.
Be patient! Your rocks need to tumble for about a month. When they are done, store your shiny rocks in a container that shows them o. Clear plastic organizers with lots of little compartments or adjustable dividers work great.
Close the lid.
Set the tumbler in a safe place and turn it on.
Check the tumbler according to the instructions.
Add more grit and water as needed.
