Lightning!
Well, the next best thing, anyway. 200,000 volts of electrostatic energy created by the Van de Graaf generator you assemble from the kit. Assembly is easy, you need a screwdriver, pliers and scissors - no soldering. A newspaper-like set of instructions includes lots of fun experiments. For grade 6 and up. This is not a toy and should be used under adult supervision. A great tool for teaching about electricity.

Mastertime
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
It's about time that hour children learned the minute details of reading a clockface.

Includes a brightly colored, almost-8" plastic clock face, (2) dodecahedral dice, tips for parents, and instructions for (3) different games.

Entomolollipops
What's in the goody bag at the entomologist's birthday party? Why, crickets on a stick, of course, inside a nice cinnamon, grape, mint or orange lollipop. Or maybe a tasty worm-like larva under watermelon-, apple-, orange- or tequila-flavored candy. The luckiest kids, of course, get the scorpion in blueberry, banana, apple or strawberry. We'll pick (2) flavors of whatever crawly snack you prefer. And feel free to order as many as you like: we won't run out -- we get a batch of new suckers every day.

Geyser Gonna Love This
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
The geyser's little helper: you screw this 6" threaded and capped plastic tube onto a 2-liter plastic bottle of diet pop (not included) and fill it with Mentos® mints (included!). Pull the trigger pin and the mints drop while you watch it erupt in 25 feet of scientific deliciosity. The instructions say to select "an outdoor location," but we think that takes half the fun out of it.
