My 6 yr old & I are really enjoying these experiments Sep 26, 2007
By Thomas My 1st grader came home wanting to do science. So, I searched on the internet and found this kit. We have done several experiments. The ones we have done are fun, they are easy enough for my son participate heavily, and educational.
The educational part is mostly because I try to take time to explain what is happening. I am an engineer and that helps give me some background on what is going on. The explanations in the book alone can be lacking. I don't take away any stars for that, for a first grader these are just wholesome fun experiments which he can do with Dad and perhaps build a longer lasting appreciation of science and engineering.

ScienceWiz Chemistry Experiments Aug 24, 2008
By Happy Mom My sons loved to gather around and do these experiments together. The text is bright and colorful, fun, and easy to understand. Science is not my strong suit, but this product made it possible for me to instill a love of science for my children. We used this in 1st grade together with the younger boys watching. An older child who can read would be able to do it alone successfully. Best of all, the kit provides the odd things you need to complete the experiments successfully.

Family Bonding with Chemistry Jan 08, 2009
By L. Baczyk ScienceWiz Chemistry Experiment Kit was a fun time that my 10 year old son and I had together. We both learned, we said "Wow", we had fun. My son had a great time showing his brothers and his friends the experiments that we did. He felt smart and showed a lot of excitement.
I would highly recommend the kit. It's a nice time to get to talk to one another and get away from the TV and video games.

Chemistry Wiz Jan 17, 2005
By Penelope A. Norman
"Dr Penny"
I am the author of this book. This is an all time favorite title that has proven itself with customers over many years. It is for ages 5-10, not for 9 and up. It is extremely visual. The images are from the talented Art Huff, who is one of our nations finest artists and animators. The materials are carefully chosen and not randomly chosen. You might like to know that my daughter and son both helped to debug this book when they were young children. The one is currently a Chemistry Major at Stanford University and the other got a 5, the maximum in his Chemistry AP exam which he took in his sophomore year in high school. Now I cannot say that this book produced these results. I do believe that it made them feel that chemistry was accessible to them and instilled a love of Chemistry in them. Also, we have used this book on an ongoing basis in our afterschool programs. It is an extremely popular class. One of the favorites. We have sold 100,000's of copies of this book since 1998. This title has stood the test of time. It has sold so well for a reason: it is charming and age appropriate and compelling.
I am currently defending my rights to my intellectual property, peculiarly enough, in a Florida federal court. I ask that you take all "spontaneous reviews" in the near term on my titles with a severe grain of salt and look deeper into other reviews on the web which span a time frame of close to 10 years.

Very engaging for the kids!! Jan 28, 2009
By J. Romano
"trini shopper"
I bought this for my 7 year old daughter last christmas. She never seemed interested in science before and I thought this might help. Well, I was head on and then some. She loves this. There are so many things she wants to try from it and she is learning so much from it. They give the science behind the experiments and guide you through with all the steps. Her older brother seems interested in it too, so they do the experiments together. I want to buy more of these now for my nieces. Great buy for the kids!!
