Product Overview

This 4M crystal growing kit lets young scientists grow 7 different colored crystals from mixing solutions, then display each one in its own hexagonal transparent cover. The kit includes large bags of Monoammonium Phosphate and colorful seeding mixtures, and detailed instructions walk kids through mixing solutions and tracking crystal growth over time. It's a hands-on mix of chemistry and craft, watching a plain solution turn into a sparkling display piece.

  • Grows 7 distinct colored crystals from included compound and seeding mixtures
  • Hexagonal transparent covers let finished crystals be displayed once grown
  • Detailed instructions guide mixing solutions and observing the growth process step by step
  • Hands-on experimentation builds scientific knowledge, fine motor skills, and patience
  • A science-meets-display project for kids who like watching results take shape
WARNING:
CHOKING HAZARD
Small parts. Not for children under 3 years.

Use Cases

  • Weekend hands-on science activity
  • Birthday gift for a child interested in chemistry
  • Rainy day crystal growing project
  • STEM-themed gift
  • Homeschool science project
  • Introductory hands-on experiment kit

Skills Developed

  • primary skill: Following detailed instructions
  • secondary skill: Observation of scientific processes

Age Suitability

  • minimum safe age: 10 years
  • ideal age range: 10 years and up
  • upper age note: The kit is geared toward children old enough to follow detailed mixing instructions independently.

Play Patterns

  • primary play type: Hands-on experimentation
  • play structure: Guided, instruction-based activity
  • social context: Can be done independently or with others
  • adult involvement: Minimal, depending on child's age and comfort with mixing solutions
  • play progression: Mixing solutions, then observing crystal growth over time, then displaying finished crystals
  • session length: Multiple sessions over several days as crystals grow

Why It Works

  • primary benefit: Lets children discover the fun of science by growing crystals and watching them sparkle.

What Makes It Fun

  • Mix the compounds, then watch 7 colored crystals grow. Each one gets its own display case when it's done.

Why They'll Love It

  • * Grows 7 different colored crystals to display * Display cases showcase each finished crystal * Mixing compounds shows crystal formation firsthand * Hands-on chemistry experimentation
