I thought this was a terrific kit. My son loved that he had directions written at his level and we really enjoyed the projects. Unfortunately, the seeds included with the kit never sprouted. While I still loved the kit (and other since then) I would definitely recommend buying back up bean and wheat seeds before you get to the third lesson.

The seeds never did sprout. I still like the product, but I would buy back up bean and wheat seeds. My son was very disappointed.
