Kerileanne99 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 After the huge hit of the frog dissection as her bday present recently, My dd (4) asked for more specimens to dissect for Christmas. Can I just say that Home Science Tools rocks? Unfortunately, my Christmas tree and entire living room are not smelling very..um, .festive:) I just bought some cinnamon sticks and dried cranberries to let her string in an attempt to disguise the aroma! What strange and random things are sitting under your tree or hidden in your closet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandelion Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 I think I'd be keeping that outside until right before you're ready to unwrap gifts. Cinnamon sticks and dried cranberries seem woefully inadequate for animal cadavers. Just guessing as I've never had a dead animal under the tree. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoVanGogh Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 We have a box full of dead animals in the closet, ready to dissect later this year and early next year. I am very, very sensitive to smells (so is DS, as he has sensory issues) but I have never noticed a smell from them. They are rinsed after preserving, then vacuumed packed. (Ordered from same place as you mentioned.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can definitely smell them close to the tree:(( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
