This is a great toy that combines quality parent/child time with science and learning. It comes with several great ideas that go far beyond simple growing projects. My 4 year old loves it, and especially loves getting the one-on-one time when we do the experiments!

My only complaint is that I was expecting the kit to come with a (small) bag of dirt. Probably a silly thing to assume, since I'm sure that would add weight, but since I don't have easy access to dirt, it was something extra I had to go buy before we could start doing many of the experiments.

I received this to help facilite a review on my blog. The Primary Science Plant & Grow Set has just about everything you need to start growing plants. We just added the soil, seeds, water, and sunlight. My son and I went shopping for seeds. We looked through the activity cards for some ideas before we left. He really wanted to do vegetables so he picked out cucumbers. We also got some flower seeds and Oregano.

After planting Jayden checked on them a few times asking if they were growing. He noticed right away that the observation jar has condensation on the inside. He is excited to watch them grow. While we were planting he asked lots of questions like, "do plants grow at night with no sun?", "how long before they are big?", and so on.

Within about a day or two small sprouts began to grow. This set has so many fun learning opportunities. I really like that the activity cards give lots of great growing activities like from a pineapple, radishes, and more. The cards also provide step by step instructions. My son was able to get the materials needed for each activity because the card shows a picture. The observation jar and the rooting tray are both clear and make it easier to see the roots as they grow. There is so much to learn in this set from parts of a plant, to the life cycle of a plant. And once the plants begin to grow you can start to measure them and get a little math involved. I think my only complaint would be that the trowel is pretty small and it doesn't scoop much.

As a homeschool mom, I am thankful for Learning Resources. They provide products that make homeschool science easy for children. I really like this set from Learning Resources. The size is perfect for my 5 year old, the only item that is very small for her is the trowel but she didn't seem to mind one bit. This is made with sturdy plastic and very colorful. When we opened the box my daughter and 1 year old son were both very excited to see this child sized set. I appreciate the variety of projects that can done with this set. We have tried the first activity card and loved it. You will need to purchase items to complete the activity cards. I had popcorn kernels already for this first project, thankfully. With this first activity my daughter can learn about how sunshine and water can cause the kernels to sprout. Next, we can plant the sprouted kernel in the pot and watch it grow! So fun! There are also 3 more activity cards available to downloadnofollow from the Learning Resources website! I highly recommend this set for your Kindergarten age child.

Since I can't have a full garden this year, my son can still have the joy of having a little garden of his own and have the joy of planting, nurturing and watching his seeds sprout and grow with the Primary Science Plant & Grow Set from Learning Resources. I still get to see that smile every time he gets to water his plants or sees the first sprout pop up from the dirt!

With the Primary Science Plant & Grow Set, you plant the seeds of early science discovery! Unique pieces, such as an observation jar and rooting tray, encourage little green thumbs. Pots are clear for observation, and trowel is sized for little hands. It is a perfect set for a child's first garden or even for experienced gardening children!

I love the clear pots so they can see everything that is happening...especially how roots spread out and even worms if you want to add them in! I know my son LOVES that! This set really comes with everything you need to get your children excited to have a green thumb! My son LOVES having his own watering can (like mommy!) and the plant markers are really helpful keeping track of which plants are growing in which pot!

This set is perfect for any child that wants to have their own pots or garden like mommy or daddy or is great for homeschooling and science time!
