Show Me Science: Volcanoes, Magnets & More
Before your child gets bogged down with scientific equations and overwhelmed with taxonomical classifications, there is a period of scientific exploration that is full of wonder and eager excitement. Show Me Science is aimed at hitting that sweet spot. Because this age group can no more read the directions than they can pour the vinegar, Show Me Science will be the parent’s science kit.
It will be messy; it will be time-consuming, but it will make your little one’s eyes sparkle, and it will give him a thirst for science that should last a lifetime. We encourage you to allow your child to participate as much as possible, and we made sure that there will be many opportunities for that. Show Me Science’s collection of 30 child-friendly experiments will have your child clamoring for just one more. The kit includes nearly everything you need, except for the occasional common household or easily-procurable items. Full-color manual with step-by-step instructions and a link to online demonstrations is also included. One shortfall of this fabulous kit is its mediocre magnet. To remedy this, we suggest adding the Horseshoe Magnet, which we have also included in our PreK Curriculum Kit.
Note: Customers who used our 2018 or 2019 Kindergarten kit will find that Show Me Science is a remix of those years' science kit. If you prefer not to perform these experiments again, you can remove Show Me Science by using our custom kit builder.
The packaging box is lightweight and may not hold up well through bumpy transit or everyday use. Although we hope to see this kit upgraded to superior packaging in the future, families using this edition of Show Me Science may want to plan on investing in other storage materials.

My daughter is in the 1st grade and we have started teaching her science. Her dad loves doing it with her and the kit had everything we needed!
My kids loved this and learned a lot. They especially loved all the different types of volcanos You can make. My only complaint is it came with a faulty balloon powered car so my son was pretty disappointed that we couldn’t do that one which is why it lost a star but over all it was great.
When I opened the manual for this kit, I was disappointed that it didn’t contain more information on volcanoes, for instance. Then I was disappointed because the same experiment was repeated several times and I thought that would be boring. But we got started with the kit and my three year old was entranced. I think we repeated the first experiment five times that first day. Since then, we’ve repeated just about every experiment several times. We’re sixteen weeks into the school year and today he asked to repeat the volcano experiment plus he had ideas on how we should use different amounts of chemicals to see if something different happens.
Love this kit and how much my preschooler enjoys it.
We love this kit. It has everything you need except a few small items for each experiment.
Thanks a good set. Not too overwhelming or messy (for me). My PreK 4yr old loves it.
