Wild! Science have a range of educational and fun collectable science kits that is suitable for children. They are a great kit to get children to learn and explore important scientific concepts and skills. If you have not heard or used a Wild! Science Kit before, why not check out this Perfume Factory.
Perfume Factory is suitable for children aged eight and above. It comes with everything you need to blend your own secret formula scents.
This Pocket Microscope is small in size to fit in your pocket/bag, and powerful enough to magnify up to 30 times in size using precision optics. This is compact and portable to use compared to those old-fashioned desk microscopes!
Discover the outer space and transform your room with Deep Space Home Planetarium & Projector! This week, we are celebrating Science Week and we have been busy learning and exploring all sorts of activities including exploring outer space.
Welcome to Science Week which is running from the 11th – 20th March! Have you been helping your children prepare science experiments for school? These Booms Bangs! Fizzes kit will definitely help you rock up their science week!
This coming Friday, we are celebrating a week of British Science Week events which will kick off on 11th March to 20th March 2016. To help us with a range of science activities, WILD! Science has a range of science kits that are designed with great play value whilst exploring fascinating scientific principles.
When I was young, I only had one chance to get hands-on in school to make a simple battery circuit to power a light bulb. Our school did very minimal technology projects with us and both my parents were not academically well-educated so we never had a chance to explore technology and science at home either. I am so glad that my parents pushed me very hard to learn well in school though, so that now I can help my children spark their creative imagination using hands-on technology.
We had previously made our own buzz wire game and also a simple circuit, thanks to the help of an engineer friend. However, some of these items were not very well protected which could have been hazardous for the children, or even me!

We love science projects in this house, from making a potato powered clock to creating a shiny penny. This week through the Collective Bias, we had a chance to make a vlog of dancing noodles! Yes, we are using chemistry to make the noodles dance!
Want to get a shiny penny? It is very easy! Recently, we have been focusing on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths), learning through educational focused activities at home.
This is a very simple science project that you could do with your toddler or young children at home. There are so many ways of shining your pennies using lemon juice, vinegar, a fizzy cola drink and all sorts.
Recently, we had fun learning through educational STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) focused activities at home. We have got involved in a few science activities like the water tornado, absorbing science, colourful sugar and potato clock!
Both of my children love science as long as we make it interesting and not bore them with too much information. Last week, we have received the Digital Metal Detector and Double Globe Planetarium from Trends UK to write about our opinion on how girls vs. boys in the family view science and science projects.
A few weeks ago, we had fun learning through educational STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) focused activities at home. One of the science activities was to learn about tornadoes and we have been provided with this Tornado Maker kit which is suitable for ages 5 and above.
This week, we been having fun learning through educational STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) focused activities at home. This powered clock is a science activity that is suitable for aged 5 and above. I do find it difficult to explain to my children but they did get the gist of it!
To make life easier, rather than looking around for all the bits to build, we had this Lemon Clock kit provided by Great Gizmos for our Twitter party. If you want to get this kit, you can get it online such as from Amazon. If you prefer to make your own, you would need black and red wires, copper and zinc plates, LCD clock and tape.
This kit is simple to build but it is best to allow older children or an adult to build it as the bits are quite fragile.
This is my third collaboration with Science4you. Last month we mixed up chemicals to make a balloon without blowing and the month before that, we had fun building a plane! This month we are mixing up slippery slugs! It is called Slimy factory!
During the summer, we had this egg and vinegar science project where I showed my children how acidic the vinegar is that it able to dissolve the egg shells.
To do this project, you will need:
Mr K and Ms C are both very curious to explore the science around them. They always ask me a lot questions including why vinegar hurts their broken skin, why the cut apple turns brown and many more. I am so glad to have this extensive kit from Science4you Chemistry 1000 to help both of my children to explore the world that surrounds them. This kit is suitable for aged 8 onwards so I help them do most of the experiments just in case they hurt themselves.
Thanks to the Science4you Chemistry kit, we have learnt how to inflate a balloon without blowing it. This is one of the experiments listed in the booklet. Click here to check out our review. I have altered a few bits of materials you need.
