We bought this chemistry set for our 11 year old grandson who is very interested in "how things work". There are sufficient basic experiments to keep him entertained for many hours and to teach him the basic principles he will use in later experiments in science class. He is currently studying at the 8th grade level in chemistry and the product, though a toy, kept his interest. I am very satisfied with our purchase.

Thames & Kosmos CHEM C500 I bought this for my 7 year old son for Christmas. He put a "Science Kit" on his wishlist and said he wanted to mix things and do experiments. This was perfect. It does need to be done with an adult as the vials are glass and it uses real acids and bases but nothing is dangerous. Great into for kids to learn to love Chemistry.

I asked my 8 yr old what he wanted to study next in science (we homeschool) and he said Chemistry. We found this kit and thought it was a reasonable price. Both my 8 & 10 year old boys are having fun as we work through the experiments in this kit. i got a few books on chemistry to go with it and we have science covered for this month!The Periodic Table: Elements with Style!Chemistry (DK Eyewitness Books)Basher: Chemistry: Getting a Big Reaction
