Beautiful Blob Slime Lab

Slime isn't just for the boys! An amazing breakthrough in the science of sliminess has been made! Now, girls can create a wide range of pretty polymers while learning important, scientific facts. The Wild Science Weird Slime Laboratory gives girls the opportunity to use their analytical thinking skills while laughing hysterically at the astonishing creations they develop. Your child can enjoy making blue glass worms, jelly gems, and beautiful bouncing beads using the safe, high-quality materials. Experimenting with colors and consistency, your child will develop hypotheses and test them through the creation of slimy concoctions.

All of the ideas in the Slime Lab are presented in a way to introduce kids to cool chemistry and prepare them for encountering these scientific ideas in school. Learning about cross-linked polymers, children will see how slime doesn't like to follow the normal properties of matter; it breaks our expectations of how matter should behave. Even if your child is at a beginner level of working with science tools, she will have no problem working with this lab. Beginning with easier lessons, the skill sets are scaffolded to have activities build upon the knowledge learned in previous activities. The lab includes enough materials to repeat the experiments several times and expand your child's knowledge by developing her own ideas and experiments. When your child is done playing mad scientist, the lab is surprisingly easy to clean and put away.
