Scientific Explorer's Mind Blowing Science Kit for Young Scientists

Winner of Parents' Choice Approved Award and Dr Toy "One of the 10 Best Educational Products 2005" Award.

Scientific Explorer's Mind Blowing Science Kit makes it possible to create your very own science lab at home. This smartly designed science kit allows young scientists to perform several amazing science experiments that range from erupting a color-changing volcano to growing colorful, jiggly crystals. Young scientists will learn about basic principles behind the science including the difference between acids and bases, and how to use a test tube and pipette. Although designed for use by children ages four and older, adult supervision is needed for safety and to ensure that young scientists get the most out of the Mind Blowing Science Kit.p table cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="250" align="right" trtd table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="250" align="center" trtdimg src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/toys/detail-page/c26-B000BURAP2-call1.jpg" border="0" alt="Scientific Explorer Logo"/td/tr trtd background="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/toys/detail-page/c26-B000BURAP2-call2.jpg" table cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="250" align="center" trtd div align="center"bMind Blowing Science Kit/b/divbr bAges:/b 4 years and upbr bRequires:/b Water, baking flour, plate or tray, tape, red and blue pens, grape juice, coffee filter paper, bowl, measuring spoons and cups, stirring spoon, towels for clean-upbr hr div align="center"bWhat We Think/b/divbr bFun factor:/b img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/toys/detail-page/c26-gen-5star.gif" alt="5 starts" border="0"br bDurability:/b img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/toys/detail-page/c26-gen-2star.gif" alt="2 starts" border="0"br bEase of assembly:/b img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/toys/detail-page/c26-gen-4star.gif" alt="4 starts" border="0"br bEducational factor:/b img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/toys/detail-page/c26-gen-5star.gif" alt="5 starts" border="0"br bNovelty factor:/b img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/toys/detail-page/c26-gen-5star.gif" alt="5 starts" border="0"br br bThe Good/b: Colorful experiments can be performed at homebrbr bThe Challenging/b: Adult supervision is required at all timesbrbr bIn a Nutshell/b: A fun, dynamic way to learn about sciencebr /td/tr /table /td/tr trtdimg src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/toys/detail-page/c26-B000BURAP2-call3.jpg" border="0" alt="Scientific Explorer callout"/td/tr /table /td/tr /table table cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="250" align="left" trtd align="center" img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/toys/detail-page/c26-B000BURAP2-2.jpg" alt="Scientific Explorer Logo" border="0" /td/tr trtd align="center" img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/toys/detail-page/c26-B000BURAP2-1-s.jpg" alt="Mind Blowing Science Kit" border="0"brbrfont size="1"bemThis kit comes equipped with almost everything you need to create mind-blowing, colorful experiments in the comfort of your own kitchen. View larger./em/b/font /td/tr /table bDo-It-Yourself Science: No Experts Required/bbr Scientific Explorer's Mind Blowing Science Kit includes almost everything you need to set up exciting, colorful experiments with your young scientist. Included in this dynamic kit are the following components: red cabbage juice powder, citric acid, color tablets, polyacrylamide crystals, a pipette, small and medium scoops, and three plastic cups. Only basic supplies are required but not included, such as water, towels, a plate or tray to catch spills, and a stirring spoon. Although none of the experiments included in this kit are especially messy, each one should be done on a flat surface that can be easily wiped clean in case of spills.P Adults who are supervising experiments do not need to be science gurus. In addition to step-by-step instructions for each experiment, the detailed science guide included with this kit provides adults with "mind blowing science secrets" that help to answer questions about what's happening in each experiment. All of the materials and experiments involve basic scientific concepts associated with acidic and basic liquids and are arranged to present these concepts in sequential order. The descriptions included in the science guide give background information related to each reaction and offer questions that adults can ask to help encourage fun learning during experimentation. P bDynamic, Fun Science at Home/bbr Adults and kids will learn amazing new things about basic and acidic solutions with the Mind Blowing Science Kit. Whether erupting a color-changing volcano, creating a sunset in a test tube, or growing colorful, jiggly crystals, this science kit mixes learning with experimentation in a fun and colorful way for a wide range of ages. Each of the hands-on activities in the science guide is intended to be performed by a young scientist under adult supervision, although these activities can be adjusted to accommodate a range of ages and capabilities while still maintaining the educational excitement of the original experiments. In addition to providing detailed instructions, the science guide makes it possible for those adults who might not have a background in science, or even any exposure to scientific experimentation, to knowledgably perform experiments successfully. The dynamic, colorful nature of the experiments included in this kit make it great for pleasing a crowd at family gatherings, parties, or science fairs.P bWhat's in the Box/bbr Red cabbage juice powder, citric acid, baking soda, color tablets, cross-linked polyacrylamide crystals, vegetable oil, corn starch, paper, cotton swabs, test tubes and caps, plastic cups, pipette, stir sticks, small and medium plastic scoops, science guide.
