Review of The Young Scientist Club Magic School Bus Diving into Slime Kit

I have three little boys and one brave daughter. So things get icky, sticky, and a bit gooey at my house -- that's just the nature of the business. When I gave them permission recently to make their own slimy substances, I was the BEST MOM EVER!

Welcome to the wonder of The Young Scientist Kits. They are clever, easy-to-use science kits, designed for all ages of children and ready to go in a moment's notice. We opened up the Magic School Bus Diving into Slime Kit and were talking all about polymers and whatnot with my kids. Even my 4 year old was engaged!

These kits contain everything you need for an afternoon (or two) of science fun, and the clean up is really a breeze. My children love this kit, and I can see us picking up different themes to go along with our homeschool or summer school curriculum.

From The Young Scientist Club website:

About The Young Scientists Club
Esther Novis, a mother of five and a former Harvard-trained biologist, started The Young Scientists Club a decade ago as a summer science camp for her then 5-year-old son. Friends from other parts of the country told Novis they felt cheated that their kids couldn’t go, so she naturally packaged the experiments and sent them off. The idea for a science subscription service was born! The subscription kits are now mailed monthly to thousands of children around the world and the company’s retail kits are sold in hundreds of specialty stores.

Cool, huh? Visit http://www.kidsciencekits.com/ to learn more!

This site is sooooo neat. Hopefully after we get our woobledey box paid off next year I'll be able to explore it more.

In the interim I'd love to win Magic School Bus going green.
