As you'd guess from the name, a lot of this kit is basically "fun with baking soda and vinegar" except for instead of vinegar it provides citric acid powder for your little scientist to dissolve in water. But there are good suggestions in the booklet for helping to guide your child towards more real scientific thinking (I kinda have a pet peeve about calling it "science" when you just mix stuff together to go poof, fizz, boom, whatever and leave it at that, and all the products out there that lead kids to think that to be "science" it has to change color, fizz, or blow up!) - adjusting amounts and observing/recording how that affects the amount of and time of fizzing, etc. Instead of liquid food coloring there are color tablets like those in egg dyeing kits.
The pieces included are nice (cups, stir sticks, measuring spoon); be prepared to use some additional containers (raid the recycling bin!) to do extension activities, and a plastic shoebox or dishpan or something to keep mess contained.
My daughter (6) needs/wants my help to use it and we only can when the toddler naps, so we haven't done all the activities yet but they look like they will be good, and there are extensions for most if not all of them in the instruction booklet. Some of them do ask for other materials/ingredients not included in the kit but it's all things pretty much anyone would have in their kitchen already.
There might not be much you can't just do with regular kitchen materials, but it's still worth it especially to give as a gift - this nice little box is a lot more appealing than a grocery bag of random stuff and really it probably doesn't cost a lot more than it would to buy all the equivalent items at the supermarket!
