The conversation begins with Nat and SC welcoming Amber to her first day of school. Amber expresses her excitement about starting her internship, which wouldn't have been possible without her mother's help. Her mother has also given them a special gift in their lockers to celebrate the occasion.
The gift turns out to be a National Geographic STEM certified educational craft activity - a mosaic craft kit. Amber and Essie are thrilled with the gift and get started on creating their mosaics. The craft kit includes a variety of glass tiles, a template sheet, paper containers, a wooden stick, slow-dry plaster, and an instruction booklet.
The process of creating the mosaic involves protecting the table with a paper towel, creating a pattern on the template sheet, mixing the plaster, and laying the glass tiles on the clay. The mosaic is then left to dry overnight. The next day, they check on the mosaic and find that it's ready to be taken out of the mold.
The girls also decide to try a marbling paint activity. They follow the instructions in their booklets and use a spreader, spoon, powder, and a design tray. The paint needs to be boiled or really hot before it can be used. The girls mix the paint and let it sit overnight. The next day, they pour the paint onto the art paper and let it float.
The girls have a lot of fun creating their mosaics and painting with the marbling paint. They express their satisfaction with their creations and thank each other for the fun day.
1. The video is about two people, Nat and SC, who are starting their first day of school and are excited about their internship. They express gratitude towards their mom for her help in making this day possible.
2. Their mom has given them something special inside their lockers, a back-to-school gift, which they find very sweet.
3. Inside the lockers, they find a mosaic craft kit from National Geographic that includes 50 plus glass tiles and is designed to create three beautiful mosaics.
4. The craft kit is designed to engage science, technology, engineering, arts, and math (STEAM) activities.
5. The kit includes an instruction booklet, paper containers, a wooden stick, tiles, a string, and three bags of slow-dry plaster.
6. The process involves creating a pattern on the template sheet, mixing and matching glass tiles, mixing the plaster, and letting it dry for a certain period.
7. The next step is to lay down the glass tiles on the clay, following the pattern created earlier.
8. The mosaic is then left out to dry overnight before being removed from the mold.
9. The process also involves using a marbling paint kit, which requires boiling water and mixing it with a powder. The mixture is then left to sit for overnight.
10. The marbling paint is used to create a design on the art paper, which is then dropped onto the molded clay.
11. The mosaic craft kit and the marbling paint kit were both given to them by their mom as back-to-school gifts.
