Might have been fun if not for the mess...
I received Science Academy strange encounters lab from WeeSpring Parent Panel. My 10 year loves to make slime and craft type things so I thought this would be a perfect match for her. Unfortunately this needed much more adult supervision than expected.. My 10 year old had random dusty powders all over the carpet and table and herself almost immediately after opening. Ultimately the spillage prevented her from being able to actually make anything other than a mess.

So fun!
I have a daughter who is 8 and is into all arts and crafts. I also have a son who is 10 and loves science. This strange labs was perfect for both of them. We worked together on the different activities that were involved and it held their attention perfectly. My daughter thought making her own bouncy ball was the coolest thing! Working on these gave us nice family time too! I did receive this from weespring parent panel

Science academy: Strange Encounters Lab
My kids could not wait to open the box. The kit comes with multiple projects, we did one per day so the kids absorbed each one separately. Their favorite was the bouncy ball, they could not get over the fact that they are able to create a ball so easily.The kit comes with everything they need and is safe. With the interstellar landscape, we put ours in a ziplock bag. Kids are still playing with the products. Overall they learned while having fun. Rec’d this product from WeeSpring Parent Panel.

Well made, but didn’t hold their attention
My kids were really excited when their kit came. We immediately open it and made the interstellar sand. Directions were clear.  It was a little messy but fun and not hard to clean up. The kids liked making the sand but weren’t interested in playing with or saving it. For the last week the kit sat on the kitchen counter - the kids did not ask to do another project - I think they were a little let down that the sand wasn’t as magnetic as they hoped. Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for our kit

Great interactive kit with easy to follow instructions
I received this science kit from weespring parent panel and we were definitely happy to try it out. My kids ages 6, 9, and 13 love science and love creating anything interactive. This science kit provided clear instructions on how to make each project and was easy to understand. The kids needed little to no help from me to complete these projects successfully so I was able to watch them have fun and build a glow in the dark bouncy ball, intergalactic sand, and a space orb all on their own.

Fun for all ages
I received the Science Academy strange encounters lab from weeSpring parent panel to try for my honest review. My kids absolutely loved this science kit. My 11 year old and 6 year old done all of the mixing and making while my 2 year old and twin 1 year olds watched. They all had so much fun that we played with everything for three straight days. Thanks againg weespring for this great opportunity to try something new with our kiddos!!
