Our micro rocket packs a lot of fun into a small package, much like hockey's original Pocket Rocket, Henri Richard, the 5' 7" brother of Maurice "The Rocket" Richard. Unlike Henri, this rocket's powered by baking soda and vinegar (not included), and actually flies quite high. Bullet-shaped, it's just 2-3/8" tall x 13/16" dia and sits on a launch base 2-3/4" tall x 3/4" ID. For rocket scientists over 5 years of age.

From Zimpli kids we bring you SnoBall Battle Pack. A packet of Sodium Polyacrylate that turns Science into an all-out snowball fight. Just add water to create your own snow. Packet contains 2.82oz to create up to 60 snowballs. The rest is up to you and your kid's friends. Winter not included.

Geology for those with short attention spans? The original Magic Rocks®, of course! Mix the solution in a jar of water, drop in the pebbles, and watch them grow into a forest of multi-color stalagmites. Growth starts in 10 minutes, is impressive in 30 minutes, and complete (up to 4" tall) in 2 hours. Extra credit if you can make it grow stalactites by gluing the pebbles to the bottom of a jar, then pouring the solution in and turning it upside down. Who knows? Maybe it will work. Comes with a set of marine decals to decorate the jar. Definitely not for use with living fish. For ages 10 and up.

rom Crazy Creations, this Brain Dome Kit is basically a lab for creating and assembling your own spooky creations out of hardening gel, or as the box says, turning “slime to stone.” Includes molds for spider parts and human bones, as well as a large brain-shaped device to cure the gel.

Add the Crazy Creations Refill Set, a slime gel kit to go along with the Brain Lab Kit. The Refill Set comes with gel, which “sets from slime to stone” in less than 6 minutes. Contains a random (1) of (3) possible molds (skeleton, dinosaur or spider), (2) bottles of hardening slime (red and blue), and a bag of decorations, including flies, maggots and ants.
