How to Make a Pet Rock Family

A pet rock is a real friend. But what if you had two pet rocks? Or four? Five? Or even ten? This is how to "raise" a family of pet rocks.

First, find your "family"

A garden is a great place, or a beach, or the best idea, a rock beach.

Then, "buy" your first home

You can make it by getting some sort of box like a shoe box,or if your school sells chocolate bars, use one of those boxes.

Use this thing to make their entertainment

For their chairs, glue Cotton balls together. For tables, use big match boxes. You can get some big ones from a dollar store. For TVs, glue a picture of something to a small piece of cardboard. For beds, make cotton chairs, only bigger. Same with couches. Make your own stuff up.

Pick what they are like

Like tough, teenager, baby, adult, or serious.

Draw faces on the rocks.

Put a fabric in for carpet in the houses.

Warnings

• You can get addicted to this, so be careful. Really careful - the addiction sneaks up and takes hold of you when you least expect it and all you can do is eat, sleep, and dream pet rocks.
