Excellent kit! I love the myriad of activities/experiments for each of the 3 kits within this kit. My 7 yr. old is able to read the kid friendly step by step instructions on his own. We are even using the Minerals section as our science fair project this year! LOVE IT!

This was missing from my order. I spoke to customer service and was told it would be delivered in 7 to 10 days which I hope happens since it is a gift for my grandson.

I will write a review after the holidays.

Thank you.
