5Kids loved it!  Jan 21, 2011
By dbaks
I teach a small group of home schoolers aged 5-8 based on these kits and this kit was great! I loved hearing the "WOW's" from kids when we did some of these experiments (especially solar beads). I used 4 kits for 12 kids and they were able to share with few extras being purchased (from the grocery store). I combined it with the "Soaring Into Flight" kit for the semester. We did trivia on the last day and I was amazed at what their little minds absorbed!

The planets didn't stick to the play dough as well as expected, but we easily fixed that with toothpicks. Use very little water to paint the planets and glue your mobile if you want it to stay on the wires. This kit is very much worth the money even with these little bumps.

3Fun but flimsy  Jan 15, 2011
By dianna queheillalt
My 6-year old enjoyed the projects; however, the kit is pretty flimsy. The projects will last a week if we are lucky.
A bit disappointing.

4Fun inside projects!  Mar 18, 2012
By momto4mntwinsfans
My four and five year old boys had so much fun trying these experiments out and learning about the different planets and the solar system. We would do an experiment a week and follow it up with other books or videos online to make sure that they understood what the experiment was about. I would defiantly by this again!

2Not all that great  Jan 29, 2012
By Laura Stcyr
I had high hopes considering the name, but it fell short. It makes for a decent jumping off point, but the constellation project was a complete fail that served only to frustrate and there is a real lack of information and instruction overall. I wont be buying this name again.
