Copper Electrode
OK, it's a strip of copper 5-3/16" long x 3/4" wide x .041" thick, but CJ says if you "take this, a zinc electrode and a grapefruit to the science fair, you get at least a C." Equally useful for crafters and jewelry makers.

Magic Rocks
Geology for those with short attention spans? The original Magic Rocks®, of course! Mix the solution in a jar of water, drop in the pebbles, and watch them grow into a forest of multi-color stalagmites. Growth starts in 10 minutes, is impressive in 30 minutes, and complete (up to 4" tall) in 2 hours. Extra credit if you can make it grow stalactites by gluing the pebbles to the bottom of a jar, then pouring the solution in and turning it upside down. Who knows? Maybe it will work. Comes with a set of marine decals to decorate the jar. Definitely not for use with living fish. For ages 10 and up.

PET Rope
Well, yes, it will tie up a pretty substantial pet (the working load is 211 lbs) but it's really rope made from recycled P.E.T. (polyethylene terephthalate) plastic bottles, by a small Brazilian community of 380 people. You get 50 feet of 1/4" dia braided monofilament rope, 4X more resistant to UVA/UVB rays than polypropylene. Assorted colors, our choice.
