With 3 exciting sensory crafts to build and 10 STEM-based activities to explore, Squishy Water Beads Science Lab is an enormously enjoyable way for children to learn about the properties of matter in its various states. That powerful pull brings kids to the table again and again, where a whole lot of learning takes place amidst the ongoing fun. The beautifully-integrated set includes a captivating array of visually-appealing, quality components, not the least of which is a highly engaging 36-page storybook and lab guide. The illustrated story, about a group of kids attending a science camp, is laced with playful interactions and fun science facts that prime young readers' minds into a highly receptive state for the real-world activities to come. These include making a squishy stress ball, building a scented mini mood lamp, exploring the properties of a soothing sensory bottle and applying a variety of controlled stimuli to the set's abundance of clear and colored water beads while carefully observing the fascinating outcomes!
