Science Experiments

May 03, 2025 - By Alisha Maxwellfrom Mesa, AZ

This is a good starter kit. I feel like some of the experiments don't have as much of a WOW factor as my daughter would like. Besides that, it is a good kit. But I do think there could be some more interesting experiments.

Yes, I would recommend this product.

Wonderful

December 09, 2024 - By CMRfrom illinois

Wonderful learning tool. it is great to watch the amazement of my grandchildren as they perform the experiments. My only wish is that an extra set of goggles coild be purchased to allow for 2 children to do the experiments together.

Yes, I would recommend this product.

More Than Just Science

December 01, 2023 - By Susan Mariefrom Southington, CT

Wow. This beginner science lab has proven to be one of the best purchases I have made for my grandchildren. It is not only about science but indeed about having fun engaging and learning. My grandson spends hours 'in the lab' and takes such pride in all that he learns, creates and does. This is truly a top rated toy that also allows children to feel as though they are truly accomplished. Nana absolutely loves this science lab as does my precious grandson.

Yes, I would recommend this product.

Great

November 12, 2023 - By Rachel Woodfrom Spokane, WA

We bought this for our son last year for Christmas and he absolutely loved it. After the materials ran out he has continued to use the test tubes with various items from the kitchen pantry. Actually contemplating buying it again. Highly recommend.

Yes, I would recommend this product.
