Customer Reviews for Science Academy: Bath Bomb Lab

We had fun with this kit. It includes everything that you need to make the most basic bath bombs. The instructions are very easy to follow. We had a good time seeing the science in action and learning why the bombs fizz. That being said, the bombs themselves weren't that great. Obviously you're not going to be making professional quality bath bombs with this kit, but we just weren't super impressed by the end result. You get plenty of ingredients. We were able to make 3 batches and it looks like we have enough material left to make maybe 3 more batches. We just had trouble with the end result. The first batch seemed like it would turn out fine, we followed the instructions exactly. We used the fun shape molds and left them to sit overnight and most of the next day. We carefully removed them from the molds and they came out in 1 piece, but then crumbled as soon as we put the bombs in our hands. They still fizzed nicely, but that fizzing was over in just a few seconds. For the 2nd and third batches we tried their troubleshooting tips to see if we could get better, more impressive bombs, but still had no luck. They just never came out quite right. You only get two colors, red and blue, so we made red bombs (that came out pink), blue bombs (these came out a beautiful blue) and then tried mixing the 2 for purple but those came out a drab gray color. And you get 1 scent - vanilla - but we never noticed a scent when the bombs were in the water. There are also instructions and materials included for another experiment, making a balloon inflate without blowing air into it. That was pretty cool. So we learned a little and had some fun, but overall weren't that in love with it.

Excellent project for daughter who loves arts and crafts. However this little twist on arts and crafts introduces and teaches children the art of chemistry. Great activity to interact with your child. She thought it was cool to wear the goggles which made her feel like a scientist. Had a little difficulty getting the bomb to form correctly, but the directions were clear on what to do if you ran into trouble. Turned out to be a success and the bath bomb really worked.

This was a gift for our 11 year old grandson. He loved it!!!

I got this cute gift set for my kids and they really have seemed to like it. It goes a step further than just making fun bath bombs to learning about them as well!

I bought this for my grandson for Christmas. He loves it and looks forward to making bath bombs.

Great science project for the grade school set nice scent and long lasting in the bath

My kids had such a great time making bath Bons with this kit. They love bath Bons already as it is, so for them to get to actually make the ones they got to use was a very fun experience for them. I will be purchasing this as a gift in the future, I’m sure!

I really like the Bath Bomb Kit, it's actually pretty neat and fun to do with my daughter. The directions are very easy to read and understand. The molds are great and fun shapes, my only tiny little problem was with the round bath mold,it's hard to get the mixture into the round mold. My daughter couldn't wait to take her bath with her new bath bombs that she created.

Both of my kids (boy and a girl) really liked this kit! They had fun both making and using them. They can be a little Messy but not too bad and definitely worth it.

I was looking for something for my preteen niece and happened upon this kit. It’s easy to complete, 20 mins or less, plus drying time. The directions are easy to follow and simple enough for tweens to do on their own. The scents are great. It was a hit! I plan to give these to several kiddos in our family for Christmas this year!

I used this to use as a quality time activity with my daughter. It was easy to follow the directions, the end product came out as expected, and the time it took to do wasn’t too long. Make sure you follow the instructions to the tee otherwise I think it gets confusing. I recommend this product.

My 10 year old and I had a blast with the BATH BOMB LAB! We made them and let them sit overnight to dry and harden. I definitely recommend this and I will be buying for gift giving real soon.
