Great Volcano for the money
My 4 year old son is obsessed with volcanoes and asked for this for a year every time he saw it in a magazine. He loved building it with his dad and watching it erupt over and over. We are not sure where to store it, since it is a bit big. But, other than that we were very happy with it.

Huge hit with all the cousins, all ages, at xmas gathering and beyond!
+ What a blast
All the cousins, from age 5 to age 20, enjoyed this at our annual Christmas Eve family gathering. They were all shooting "smoke" rings all over the family room (without doing any damage to anything!) while the grown ups occupied themselves with their usual socializing, etc. It is a no-mess, ...

BOX O' BONES

Box O' Bones Glow-in-the-dark plastic skeleton, about 1 ft. tall. That is the end result. What you get is a box of bones that you snap together to create the final product. Which is kind of fun. Or of course you can leave some or all of them disassembled to create a sense of havoc. We're not going to claim it is anatomically correct, or educational. But you do need to figure out that feet ...

+ TORNADO
I bought this for my son's Science Project on Tornados. It worked like a charm in creating a "tornado" in a bottle. No leakage and was easy to assemble! Makes a pretty cool visual for kids!

Discovery Sky Rocket Kit 1 review

Discovery Channel
worked well, but did not last as long as described
The product description says that the rocket can be lunched many times.
The rocket worked only three times. After the third time,
the charger (where you put soda in) broke.
We still have the rocket, but we can not lunch it without this part.

Scientific Explorer's Disgusting Science - A Kit for Studying the Science of Revolting Things 16 reviews

disgusting!!
+ Educational and Gross!! + Fun for all
We swiped some toes (after running around sockless in rubber boots), toilet water, teeth, the kitchen sink, and left one open to the air for 1/2 an hour. The winner was the toes! Truly gross. It takes about 10 days to get some good cultures going, but we kept a chart and it was VERY educational. ...

Fantastic
Been looking for a set of these for years since I lost my first set. The science is interesting enough, but the fun part is completely baffling your friends. They look identical, but if you can palm one and bounce the other, your friends will be shocked when you make the switch and the ball just ...

Great toy for the price
+ good enough + We love it! Great deal!
My son absolutely loved this toy. It was fun to watch him study and analyze how a twister is formed in this way. I also learned a few facts about this phenomena from the educational tidbits on the back. Most toys for my son he loses interest in fairly quick. But this toy so far has kept his ...

fun and easy, but with one problem
We bought this for our 6-year-old daughter, and she enjoys using it. It is simple enough that she can do it herself. However, within the first hour, the bulb burned out. We replaced it with the spare bulb that came in the box, and that one burned out less than a month later (and we do not use ...
