Klutz: DIY Rainbow Catcher
Bring rainbows right inside the house! This easily assembled, triple-crystal, motorized kit sticks to any window and uses incoming sunlight to project rainbows into your child's room. Also included is a detailed, 32-page book, which we loved because it does a fantastic job explaining the science of rainbows. Ever wonder which specific weather patterns cause them? This STEM book lays it all out nicely. Learn how to find and record rainbows in the wild. Plus there are six experiments to try. Make a rainbow bubble snake or volcano; but for our kids nothing beats rainbow slime!
This is one of our favorite kits and we find that both boys and girls love it! This kit includes small-scale versions of art supplies perfect for painting, coloring and more. Kids will learn about the artists and history behind their classic works of art with tongue-in-cheek takes by famous artists including Frida Kahlo, Vincent Van Gogh, Piet Mondrian, Leonardo di Vinci, and more. They even provide extra blank canvases that allow budding artists to express themselves, and a super cute display easel to show their mini masterpieces. For kids who like to engage in imaginative play, this set will be use long after the art is complete!
