The best one is making the volcanoe, but make sure you read all of the directions. Have fun, it’s an awesome kit and will help your kid understand if they have bad grades in Science. Hey maybe even the parent will enjoy it.

The chemistry set was incomplete and misleading. It does not contain additional experiments. Also box was incomplete and missing pieces.

Big disappointment. Cheaply made. T-rex model does not snap together, can not even fit together as parts are improperly molded. Microscope less functional than a magnifying lens. Volcano is ok, the plaster does work, but you must provide ingredients for the eruption. Weather center very very flimsy and breaks. I was quite surprised a name like Smithsonian would be associated with this low of quality in a product. Supplies for crystals subpar for what is required. Was an enormous disapointment after the holidays for my sons.

The set we bought by the same name includes 6 activities – volcano, microscope, earth and moon, weather, crystals, and t-rex. The volcano is a lot of fun. It comes with a volcano shaped mold, then you mix up a sand/plaster mixture included to make it look more like a real volcano, then use vinegar, baking soda, and food color (again to make it look more real) to make the volcano go off.
We had a hard time with the microscope since it’s pretty cheap. Just a mirror and no light, so you’ve got to have really good light to even begin. The crystals and earth/moon have been disappointing as well.
We’ve had fun taking the mini weather station outside to check the weather, and my son like to put together the t-rex.
So we’ve been pleased with a few of the activities, but overall it isn’t something I would buy again.
