My kids love anything related to slime so when I heard about Ooze Labs: Big Box of Science I was really excited because it meant that they would get more out of it than just a sensory experience. The Big Box of Science comes with five large, sturdy test tubes, a test tube rack that holds them and directions for 15 different experiments including the supplies for Super-Expanding Instant Snow, Thermocolor Slime, Glow-in-the-Dark Slime, Quicksand Oozebleck, and Fast-forming Crystal Feather.
My girls and a friend had a lot of fun trying out all of the different experiments. They worked together and took turns doing different things like measuring, pouring and stirring.
The Experiment Manual not only has the directions for each experiment but more information on the science behind it. I read these sections to the kids as they were doing the experiments. Here’s a little more info about the five main experiments in the kit:
Let it snow! Combine a special, non-toxic snow powder with water and watch as the mixture expands to hundreds of times its original size, creating a light and fluffy material resembling snow.
Let it glow! Whip up a batch of slime that stores light energy and then glows in the dark!
Let it flow! Mix your own oobleck — a mysterious oozy substance that behaves a little like quicksand. It is a rigid solid under force, but runs like a liquid when no force is applied.
Let it grow! Grow a delicate crystal feather with a fast-forming crystal solution.
Let the colors show! Make your own color-changing slime that changes from green to blue depending on the temperature.
All of the experiments were really fun and cool but we especially loved the Quicksand Oozebleck. It was so weird that it looks like a liquid yet when you shake the test tube, the liquid stays put!
This was a really fun kit that gave the kids something fun yet educational to do. It’s designed for kids 6 and up and retails for $24.95. You can find out more and purchase a set here.
