- Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2023We got this for our daughter for Christmas. Upon opening it, we found various pieces were not included. I reached out to Abacus Brands customer service and they quickly responded to my issue. They responded that my missing parts issue was not one they regularly encountered. They sent a new box which had all parts included! The customer service I received was top notch!
This science kit is great for all future scientists out there! I highly recommend!
- Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2025My nephew loved it
- Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2022This was a great gift for my precocious 6 year old grandson. The VR glasses are great and well made. My grandson loved it. It says for 8-12 year olds. A parent definitely needs to help a 6 year old figure out how to use it. I wish they would provide a video for instructions. Read instructions before you give it to a child so you can show them if they have trouble using them. Experiments are pretty simple and safe.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2024My 6 year Grandson loved this gift.

- Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2020We fully intended on making this a Christmas gift, but with Thanksgiving being apart from our families this year, we decided to open this one early to enjoy over the break. I'm so glad we did! This is not our first "science kit" for kids, but it is by far the best. From the VR interaction with Bill Nye to the premium items included, this was a big hit with our children. With virtual learning and science in particular tough for them this year, this kit really helped bring some excitement back to learning from home. Thanks, Bill!

My eight year old daughter loved this! I was less than impressed with the headset and didn’t think it added any real value to the experience.

5.0 out of 5 stars how did I make my God Daughter very happy - Bill Nye knows for sure.
spend a couple of hours and kept coming back to this item on Amazon - and everyone has been so impressed with the quality of the product.

1.0 out of 5 stars Bill Nye should be ashamed of this product.
This science kit is a big waste of time and money. Don't get fooled by the VR and app, they don't work. Read the reviews of the app on android app store. Most people can't get the app to work. I have tried it with a new 32GB tablet and all you get is a camera looking at the book. There is no vr, no ar. You are better off getting a good science kit and not buying something with Bill Nye's photo on it.
