My son enjoyed the video and was thrilled to throw rocks to make "craters." Even after the experiment he played with the pan full of flower for quite a while (outside where I didn't care if he made a mess). I'm not sure he cared much about the science after he was done watching the video but he's also on the young side so it's still a bit over his head. Regardless, he watched the video intently and had fun with the hands-on activity that followed!
