Reviews
What a GREAT teaching. My 3 year old grandson was washing the little animal after the oil compromised his little body! Kiwi company is WONDERFUL at every level. Customer service like no other! Crates are amazing! I send 5 a month to grandchildren from 1-11
Luckily I bought two. My 4 yr old grandchild loved the oiling and washing of animals and mixing color, but this interfered with her 9 yr old brother's desire to follow the experiments. As a former Env. Sci. major and teacher, I loved everything about the activity.
This was a great science project for our homeschool. The materials are high quality, the instructions are clear, the story is engaging. My kids have already asked to do it again! KiwiCo always provides high quality, engaging material and this set didn’t disappoint!
