7 Amazing, Gross, and Fun Science Kits for Kids
Fun Science Kits for Kids
Do you have a science lover in the house?
Then you must grab one of these amazing, fun, and gross science kits for kids! These amazing kits will inspire a love of science in your child!
I have to admit that some of my own favorite Christmas gifts as a child, and as a parent,ย were science kits for kids.
Dad would take me to his lab to work. He completed his experiments. I sat and worked on my own science project. That is when I wasnโt roller skating through the halls.
The Christmas holidays were awesome!
So check outย these awesome science kits of spectacular, slimy, science designed to delight your kids!
1.
Scientific Explorer Disgusting Science Kit
Disgusting Science is perfect for preteens. Kids learn about snot, bacteria, blood, and why feet stink!
Thereโs nothing going to intrigue young boys like making snot to gross their sister out! I set a rule that mothers are to be left alone or an especially loathed meal will be served for breakfast, lunch, and dinner for a WEEK!
Scientific Explorer Disgusting Science Kit is recommended for children 8 years and older with adult supervision.
2. Scientific Explorer Magic Science for Wizards Only Kit
Is your child fascinated by magic? Adores reading fantasy books? Is your childโs favorite character Gandolf from the Lord of the Rings?
Then introduce them to Magic Science!
This kit allows kids to make potions and spells to change colors while explaining the science behind the magical brews. Science at its finest!
Scientific Explorer Magic Science for Wizards Only Kit is recommended for children 6 years and older with adult supervision.
3. Scientific Explorer My First Science Kit
Donโt leave your preschooler out of the mix!
Encourage an early love of science with this kit to set up a color mixing laboratory or grow their own crystals!
Scientific Explorer My First Science Kit is recommended for children 4 years and older with adult supervision.
4. Candy Chemistry
After all those candy canes, what kid doesnโt need more sugar after Christmas, and what parent doesnโt need a few peaceful hours?
And what fits the bill better than candy chemistry! Make gummy bears, chocolates, rock candy, and more using chemistry in the kitchen.
Candy Chemistry is a science kit for kids recommended ages 10 and older.
5. Frog Growing Kit
Just what every mother needs! A frog growing kit for her children.
Set up an aquarium with the live tadpoles and watch them turn into frogs!
Beware, local temperatures need to be above 40 degrees and below 85 degrees in order for the tadpoles to survive shipment.
But just think of the fun and excitement of watching a tadpole grow into a frog in your very own house! This willย fascinate kids from preschoolย through high school.
And you even get aย pet frog!
6. Smithsonian Digginโ Up Dinosaurs T-Rex
Do you have a budding paleontologist in the house? Someone who would rather dig up a dinosaur than chase a frog around the house?
Try this dinosaur dig from the Smithsonian! Not only do the kids dig up a plastic skeleton, but they get the pleasure of putting it together!
The recommended age is children 8-15 years old.

Snap Circuits Pro SC-500 Electronics Exploration Kit
Snap Circuits are a blast and a truly excellent method for children to learn about electricity.
Snap Circuits allow children to build radios, fans, doorbells, and many, many more projects. The best thing about this kit, the kids can take it apart and build the projects over and over and over and overโฆ
It has a recommended age of 8-15 years.

Very cool list โ I am pinning for reference for when my kids get a little older. I would like to try to get them a microscope soon, though. The tadpole kit is probably a gift for the near future (this summer). Thanks for the reminder not to try to have it shipped in the dead of winter!
The tadpole kit is one kids of all ages enjoy! Itโs so much fun to watch the tadpoles turn into frogs. ๐
