Like all the Ein-O Science Toys, this one is a pretty clever set. It’s packed with some very cool science experiments that your kids can do (mostly) on their own. You’ve got the: hoverball, sticky beaker, magic jumping beans, simple water filtering, twin rings, connecting water, paper kite, can roller, frequency match, and suspended paperclip. […]
If you’ve read many of the reviews on this site, you’ll know that I love almost all of the Ein-O Science Kits. These test tube kits are just as fun (and educational) as the rest in their line. This one is about egg science and comes with a manual to guide kids through six experiments […]
This is a pretty cool kit. Kids will learn the science behind 10 clever magic tricks. You’ve got a prism, some optical illusion cards, dominoes, and of course a magic wand. And I love the Ein-O science guides; they are truly first rate. This one is no different and explains the tricks you learn in […]
This was a pretty no-frills kit, but with some pretty cool science fair type projects in it. If you’ve ever wondered what kind of chemist makes perfume, well, I guess it would be one who does stuff like you do when you experiment with this kit. The concept is pretty clever, and while it’s actually […]
If you’ve ever seen the insta-snow endorsed by Steve Spangler or Be Amazing Toys, you’ll know what this is all about. As far as science kits go, this stuff is pretty cool. They claim that the small polymer-like substance will expand to 100 times their dry size when put in water. I haven’t measured them […]
SmartLab Toys has done a great job of producing chemistry, physics and general electronics science toys, but with the introduction of their You-build-it Rock Star Microphone they’ve branched into an almost new area. With this kit, kids get to build their own microphone. Okay, so they’re not soldering capacitors and resistors to integrated circuit boards, […]
For an entry level microscope, this is a pretty good choice. I tried this one out with my five-year-old son and it was just about the right size for his small hands. It comes with a couple of slides and a what they call a “curiosity box” for observing things other than standard slides. It […]
This is one cool science kit from TedcoToys’ line of Professor Ein-O science toys. The Discovery Tank opens up the spectacular expanse of space and provides a great introduction to Space Science. Professor Ein-O is a take on everyone’s beloved Albert Einstein, and the play on words of “I know” science. While the name of […]
Okay, so I shouldn’t call this a game, as it’s more educational software, but it was pretty fun none the less. The jewel case of the CD says, “Bring Dinosaurs Back to Life” and that was pretty accurate. The software is for Windows (all versions) and it flows like fairly typical Windows software. But the […]
