Great for young scientists!
My 8 year old son wants to be a scientist when he grows up and this kit has so many things that he is able to learn and try out for himself! The books that come with this kit not only give directions, but it also explains why and how the results happen. You do need to use some of your own household supplies, like batteries, scissors, yarn, etc, however there are plenty of things to try if you don’t happen to have something available at that moment! My son loves this kit! It was fun for the whole family and we still have so many more of the “experiments” to try!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Playz Ridiculous Inventions Science Kits for Kids
Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2019
This kit is so fun to do with kids . My 11 yr old daughter enjoyed doing them all with her siblings ages 5 and 8 and was able to complete most without much help. They learned a bunch of things and it helped teach them to follow instructions. Each experiment had most items needed but did require us to find other items not included. Most we had around the house though. The favorite one was electric circuits , they had a blast with it. My daughter is also very much interested in history and she loved the facts about samual morris , it invited a lesson on him . Overall great price for all thats offered and comes in a sturdy box to store everything in when not in use.
