5.0 out of 5 stars Young Scientist Kit
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.

2.0 out of 5 stars Does NOT include all necessary materials!
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...

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...

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.

This review is from: Young Scientist Series - Set 2: Weather (Kit 4) - Solids, Liquids, and Gases (Kit 5) - Volcanoes (Kit 6) (Toy)
A great product, a fantastic learning experience. The only dissapointment I had was that I sat down with my son, who was VERY excited to get started and upon reading directions there are several "common household items" needed. None of which I had. The box states on the front 3 complete kits. As I looked at the box, there is indeed in small writing on the back "will need some household items". I just wish I had known ahead of time so I could have been more prepared for my son.
However, I am very much looking forward to doing these experiements once I can manage to obtain these "common household items" which are not common in my household.
