Steve Spangler ScienceSTEM Kit: Newton's Antics Science Kit, Ages 8+, Experiments for Kids, Chemistry Set, STEM Projects, Educational Toys

This kit works well and is very good quality... This great for kids and worth getting. I recommend it...

I'm torn on this set, because it's a great little set for a few home experiments for kids. It actually showcases intro to physics with items you can find at home. This part is GREAT.My problem is, all this stuff can be assembled with stuff you probably already have at home, for WAY cheaper than 40 bucks. They have a huge mark up on this, I think those monthly science experiment boxes are cheaper and similar quality. So, this was a great learning experience for my kids, but probably not worth the $$. Watch some YouTube videos and collect the items next time you go to the store so you can do it at home.

My kid love science and experiments, we do a lot of them for our homeschool classes. This kit is o.k., the items included are not the best quality and could be found cheaper if bought individually. I think this kit is more of a convenience or maybe would be good for those with a charter who need to purchase kits to fulfill education requirements. The younger kids enjoyed the experiments and the older ones got bored.

These basic science kits come with everything you need to perform, fun, basic experiments at home or in a classroom situation. Designed for middle grade elementary or early middle school students, there is clear, easy to read instructions, as well as information about the principles at play.My kids, ranging in age from 5-13, all enjoyed the simple experiments and having everything in one place made this a great rainy day sort of activity to pull out when you hear the "I'm bored" calls begin. It was a fun family activity and they maybe even learned something, so win-win.

Although I think the experiments have been somewhat interesting for both parent and kid, it is difficult to argue the value in this KIT. Our son is five years old and we pretty much had to walk him through it all which is understandable since he is completely new to STEM or just science in general. The best part for him was really the beads and it took a few try to figure out how to make it best work. Obviously, the hire you are the faster it goes. Overall, value is hard to justify here.This review is for STEM Newton’s Science Kit; physics for kids; experiments to understand the first law of motion, gravity, friction, inertia and more.

Got this thinking it would help for my 4th graders science experiments but it was kind of disappointment with the content received. Activity guides were good but the contents were more for playing than for experiments.

Most of the items included in this kit are average items most people can find either around the house or at the dollar store. The cups, bottle, balloons are all the same quality as what you would already have. The inertia beads are actually mardi gras type beads. They are long but again not expensive. The two plastic golf balls are just that, cheap plastic balls. We found the experiments to be disappointing as well. There is a couple involving flicking a card or a yellow ring out from under a hex nut. One involving the beads being "magically" pulled from the cup. Not really magical to most kids. Spinning a penny in a balloon. And the old pendulum swing "trick." I'd skip this set as there are better ones out there.

Small kit but the kids had fun playing with it. Some explanation for science properties which is good. Nice packaging as well. Made in China.
