One of the Mom/Daniel activities I found on Pinterest was this volcano. Daniel had a dinosaur unit at school where he learned about volcanos and was obsessed with the lava. So I found this.
First, we collected rocks from our yard.
Then, we made salt dough to form the volcano.
It was a little too heavy so it didn't keep a very good volcano form, but good enough for a 4 year old. 
When it was dry (two days later), Daniel painted it.
Then, when their cousin Charlotte was in town, we took turns choosing colors to make the lava and sat back and watched it erupt.
The kids loved it. And we have done it twice since then. Turned out to be a pretty good activity.
