Creativity for KidsGrow 'N Glow Terrarium Kit - Educational Science Kits, Kids Gifts for Boys and Girls, Craft and STEM Projects (Ages 6+)

Got two of them for my daughters which immediately went to good use. The grass has already started growing & they're excited.

The media could not be loaded. My daughter got this terrarium for Christmas. She was very excited to use it. She is 6 years old. We followed all the directions except the one that says not to put in a ton of seeds! Somehow we missed that. If you put in too many seeds, it can supposedly crowd the plants and hinder growth. Not the case here! We got tons of growth. I feel like this is a foolproof terrarium and great for little kids because you are pretty much guaranteed to grow something. We were worried that nothing would grow because the roots would choke each other out, but we have tons of growth. My daughter is very excited. Another thing that happened was she tilted the jar to look at something and all the layers got messed up before any of the plants had grown. Still worked. I am telling you, you really can't screw this up. One thing that is hard is getting the butterfly wings on. She tried to do it on her own and it ripped a little, but that didn't matter. We ended up taking it off anyway. My daughter also chose to take out some of the decor inside the jar because she wanted the plants to have as much room to grow as possible! It is very satisfying when you buy something that actually works out!

Cute to do with your toddler, My daughter loved setting it up and watching it grow. Easy to use, learning how to plant, colors are fun. Great value for the price would buy again

This terrarium is so cute and fun to do with your child, it says 6+ but I was able to do this with my 4 year old. She enjoyed the process and loved the outcome. Be sure to read the directions well, it insures plant growth and a very happy kid. The steps are clear and simple. Within 3 days, sure enough we had little sprouts. And she also can see the little roots run down the inside through the layers of soil and colored sand. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is, the stickers don't glow in the dark as they state they do. That was a huge let down. Otherwise fun, giftable and worth the money.

Perfect return gift we gave on my son's birthday and kids luved it

This was a fun project for a 6 & a nine year old .They each had their own terrarium .

My grand girls were excited to work on this project. Each of them had one. Imagine the disappointment when one was missing one of the most needed elements… potting soil. They tried to share, but that resulted in not the perfect finished projects!

There's nothing fancy here. The plastic equivalent of a mason jar, some potting soil, some seeds.The thing is, all the hard work of making a terrarium has been done for you:- Some ventilation holes punched out of the jar lid- Seed selection made, with seeds that grow quickly and are sized well (with respect to grown size) for the terrarium- Soil and pebbles clean and bright- etc.This lets kids get down to the fun part, i.e. actually putting everything together and then watering and watching, while skipping the parts of the project that might bore them if you did this from scratch (i.e. the adult having to track down a mason jar, matching lid, and then punch holes in it with a hammer and nail, for example).The final result is attractive, the seeds in our kit grew quickly (about 24 hours in we had sprouts) and well, and it was manageable for kids, who were able to take ownership of the project and feel proud of the results.It's cheap, it looks good, it works, and it teaches something about biology/botany and something about responsibility (e.g. watering to keep the plans growing).Easy win all around at this price.
