Science Kits, Beakers and Test Tubes Experiments

Description

What happens when two colors meet? How many drops will change the water level? Start with a little water and a question, then explore with tools for pouring, transferring, mixing and looking closer.

Highlights

• A varied assortment of plastic tools for hands-on science activities.
• Test tubes and stands make it easy to observe liquids side by side.
• Droppers and measuring spoons offer different ways to transfer small amounts.
• A magnifier brings everyday details into closer view.
• Sturdy plastic pieces with smooth, rounded edges are easy to clean after use.

Ways to play

• Mix New Colors: Use a dropper to combine water tinted with blue and yellow food coloring. Add a drop at a time and watch how the color changes.
• Pour & Transfer: Pour water from a small beaker through the funnel into the flask. Practice pouring slowly and watch the water collect below.
• Watch Water Travel: Place three open test tubes in the stand, with colored water in the outer two. Connect each outer tube to the empty middle tube with a folded paper-towel strip. Dip the ends into the colored water and check back to see it slowly travel.
• Sink or Float: Predict what a cork and a smooth pebble will do in water. Place them into a partly filled beaker one at a time and compare the results.
• Dissolve & Compare: Fill two beakers with equal amounts of water. Stir a pinch of salt into one and a few grains of rice into the other. Compare what remains visible.
• Look Closer: Use the magnifier to examine a leaf. Follow its veins, look along its edges and describe details you might otherwise miss.

Use with adult supervision. Food coloring, paper towels and other household activity materials are not included.

Good to know

Prepare water and other activity materials separately. Keep tools and activity liquids away from the mouth. The included equipment is for hands-on exploration, not medical use.
