But my daughter got this kit for Christmas and LOVES IT! It is the perfect thing for her to do on her own. Since she is in first grade, she can easily read the directions. They are very clearly written. All of the materials that she needs are right there. The kit requires a few additional materials, but all of them are things that she can easily access (i.e. a butter knife). All of the experiments are very easy for her to do and clean up after. She loves pretending to be a wizard, and so far it has provided HOURS of self-directed entertainment and learning. It was a great choice and I would recommend it to anyone who has a 5-7 year old who can read and who is interested in doing experiments with limited adult interaction.
Of course, I would also recommend that parents encourage children to form a "hypothesis" and help explain the "why" part of the experiment to help increase the learning potential of this kit. But it can also be used if you need your older child to be entertained while your younger two nap;)
