Oil and water may not mix, but kids and chemistry definitely do! First, set up your own chemistry lab. Add fizzy tablets to oil and dyed water to make an underwater “volcano,” make colorful, swirly art, explore the concept of density when you build an oil-and-water-powered ship-in-a-bottle, and more!

Oil + Water Chemistry

kept my grandson busy for quite awhile.  He loved experimenting


My 2 year old absolutely loved this box. So happy I added it in between crates. 

This was so much fun for my 3yo. We spread the activities out over the course of the week. It's been almost 3 hours of activities altogether. Each activity was so much fun. 

What we liked:  each activity in the kit was fun (except one); most of the ingredients can easily be found at home, so you can continue to experiment; the instructions and materials were great to get the lab set up, and once you are all set up, that's all you need.
What we didn't like:  the underwater fireworks didn't really work and there was no troubleshooting guide to suggest what might have gone wrong - it only did the "fireworks" when we took our own step and added colored water at the top.

My kids loved this kit. We spread it out over a week. It was their reward for being good each day. 

Probably one of the best boxes yet. The instruction book was very thick and had A LOT of experiments and plenty of ingredients to do all of them. The only thing you need to add is water. Big hit 

Our kids enjoyed this kit very much. I actually got a second kit for my nephew. I did feel like this kit was best done all at once and when you had an entire day to spend completing it. Good on a rainy day

2 hours of learning and fun for both my kids.
