Lab Kit for Science in the Ancient World

Have you ever used the Berean Science curriculum and wished you had a prebuilt lab kit with all of the supplies you needed? Have you thought about using Berean Science but felt intimidated to search several stores to gather all the lab supplies? Make your life easier, and save a ton of time by purchasing the lab supply kit that correlates to the experiments in Science in the Ancient World.


The lab kit contains over 30 of the items you may not, or likely would not, have around the house. You will still need to gather a few things from around the house, like a few standard office supplies, some kitchen items, balls, etc. You may also have to buy food items, but trust us, this is a good thing. You do not want a kit shipped to your house full of fresh fruits, vegetables, and eggs that were sitting on a warehouse shelf. 


However, for the things you would have to pick up at the craft store, hobby store, and/or superstore, this handy kit has virtually all of them in just the quantities you'll need to complete your experiments. The minimal optional items you won't find in your home are not included, so you'll need to pick those up if you choose to do those experiments.


Note: this kit is designed to be used by a parent or teacher with a child. It is not intended for use by children 12 and under unsupervised. Plus, you'll have so much fun with things like "Making a Hydrometer and Growing Plants without Soil," why wouldn't you want to join in?

    Worth it

    It's worth it to not have to find and buy all of the materials needed.

    Great Time Savers

    I like these kits because they save me from having to track down everything we need for the experiments. However, I have found that some of the kits are missing a couple things that I feel they could have added. So be prepared to do a little looking, but it definitely saves time.

    Cool experiments

    My son enjoys these experiments a lot. We do them on the weekends a few at a time. The younger kids always love to watch and want to get involved as well. Fun for the whole family while also learning.

    Fun!

    I am glad to get the Lab Kit for Science in the Ancient World. Some of these items we would just never have and we might miss out on a fun experiment then.

    After going through Science in the Beginning last year without a lab kit, I was excited to have a lab kit to use with Science in the Ancient World. Although none of the items are terribly hard to find, it is a huge convenience to have many of them immediately on hand in this kit. However, some things weren't included that I wish had been, such as clear plastic bottles. We don't buy bottled drinks so I never have them around the house. The biggest issue I had was with the gelatin. Packets of gelatin were included with absolutely no instructions for how to prepare that gelatin. There was no indication of the amount that was in the package, or how much water to use - NOTHING. I tried weighing the package and using a proportional amount of water compared to the instructions for some Jello I had on hand, but that did not work, so one of the packets was wasted. I still have a couple of experiments left that call for gelatin, so I'm going to try calling the Home Science Tools company to see if they can send me some instructions. I will say, I've had a good experience with the company so far. When my kit arrived it was missing the magnets that should have been included. I contacted customer service and they immediately sent them out with no hassle.
