## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ excellent convenient  fun kit
*by S***S on February 3, 2011*

I'm a homeschooling mom, and I have had many disappointing kits, so this one was very welcome. It had everything I needed, (no stopping right when eager kids are enthralled just to go to the store). I did not need to do everything in the kit first just to see if it worked. Most importantly, it delighted my kids and made them love science right away on our first science class of the semester. I did all of the experiments and only two were less than amazing. I learned how cameras, lenses, light bending, eye physiology, colors and history all work together. Everything worked, which is rare for a product with so many experiments at an inexpensive price.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Four Stars
*by S***N on December 3, 2016*

Good kit.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My 7 year old loves this set
*by A***R on November 2, 2021*

My 7 year old son is frequently asking if we can do the activities from this optical illusion set. I assemble the pieces together and the booklet gives a brief description how the illusion works. It's fun to see him light up with delight when something unexpected happens.
