2.0 out of 5 stars Does NOT include all necessary materials!, September 5, 2005

This review is from: Young Scientist Series - Set 2: Weather (Kit 4) - Solids, Liquids, and Gases (Kit 5) - Volcanoes (Kit 6) (Toy)

I am very disappointed in receiving this kit! Really all you get are the instructions for the experiments (easily enough found in a book or on the Internet) and a few supplies. For example for the volcano, included is 2 sheets construction paper, pumice, magnifying glass, black paint and paint brush. You need to supply newspaper, top of a shoebox, 2 1/2 liter plastic bottles, flour, water, vinegar, red food coloring, baking soda, liquid dish detergent and tape! I don't think this kit helps much in making the volcano!!! Doesn't seem worth $30 to me...

Doing science doesn't get any easier than this! As a homeschooling mom I was looking for a way to make science interesting and educational at the same time. This kit does both. It was also a tremendous help to have supplies included in the kit.

Great kits. My children loved them and I only needed to supply some very common household items everything else was included. Getting three complete kits for this price is a great deal and hours of fun.
