Great for a refresher course. The one thing I would emphasize more is to cover your work area with newspaper oron something g with raised edges like a large. Cookie sheet
The O'Neil Sisters
Thanks for watching, Rhonda! You're right about covering your work surface properly -- candlemaking can be messy business. The cookie sheet idea is a great one -- thanks for sharing that. And let us know how your candle turns out -- we'd love to see a photo when you're through!

Thanks for watching the lesson! This is a fun project for a 4th grade science project for sure. What a great idea! Will you upload a picture of his finished candle so we can admire his handiwork? We'd love to see it! Have fun -- and let him know he can ask us questions if he needs any help while he's making his candle.
