Last year for Christmas
Scholar received a science kit.
But we didn't have time to pull it out,
until September.
He had patiently waited a LONG time!
His conclusion...
Lemon juice worked the best,
then vinegar and soapy water about the same
(especially since he kept shaking the pennies during the experiment)
and the plain water only worked a little bit.
And pennies that were not very dirty in the first place,
they cleaned up the best.
This kit would be better suited for a younger child.
But it does make a great first kit for a young scientist.
It looks like it will hold up pretty well,
so once we get "real" replacements -
some parts may well become a "free play" or tub toy.
It ranges between $20 and $35 - depending on where you buy.
But I feel even the $20 is overpriced.
