This set contains chemicals that may be harmful if misused....Not to be used by children except under adult supervision. You'll be spending some fun time with your kids while learning. There doesn't seem to be a simple option to reorder the "chemicals" so you can redo the experiments.
Experiment with six potions and concoctions. Make pink slime. Mix up a color-changing mood putty. Volcano in a test tube. Lava-lamp-like fizzing reaction. Grow a crystal feather. Experiment with golden putty. Learn the chemistry and physical science behind some of the properties of these potions.
Reviewer: I'd really like it if Lego wouldn't draw a hip/waist curve on the torso of their female Lego figures. They don't create v-shapes for the men. Do we really need ladies to have an hour-glass shape to know they are ladies?
LEGO fan designer Maia Weinstock, a science editor and writer, presented her idea for a Women of NASA LEGO set to the LEGO Ideas crowdsourcing platform. The final design of the Minifigures and set was done by LEGO designers Tara Wike and Gemma Anderson. In the original proposal, five NASA women were included but the set include just four, as Katherine Johnson chose not to be part of the set. Tara Wike got to visit the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to present the final Minifigure designs to Maia Weinstock and Margaret Hamilton, who is one of the scientists immortalized in LEGO shape. “It was a great experience to give these amazing women their new LEGO identity and a great honor to personally present Margaret Hamilton with her very own Minifigure,” said LEGO Design Manager Tara Wike.
Crayola Color Wonder Mess Free Light Up Brush, 36 months - 12 years
Comments:
Thought this was going to be a little bigger with a few more markers.
I like the idea of it, but within a week or two it got torn by my son.
Not "mess free". Poor packaging. Bent and disfigured when I got them...not so great when you're giving them as a gift.
The Crayola Color Wonder Magic Light Brush & Drawing Pad lets kids create so called "paintings" with much less mess of traditional paints. Color Wonder paints are specifically designed to work only on special Color Wonder paper, so they won't leave color marks on skin, furniture, or carpets. Dip the Magic Light Brush into any of the six included color paint gel pots, which may be expensive to refill, and the brush will magically light up to match the color you've chosen. This set includes 18 Color Wonder pages. Batteries not included.
Pad from Vietnam and paint from USA and as usual, some components are made in China.
Clear gel substance that can only be seen once it's painted onto the wonder paper. If the paint hits any other surface it remains clear but you can see it well enough to clean up. Gel mess is easy to wipe.
The tip of the brush changes to the color of paint selected. Water is needed to clean the brush when changing paint colors. The paint gel refills may be difficult to locate to buy, at times.
VTech Drop and Go Dump Truck, Ages 6 months to 3 years
The holes in the product for the ball accommodations allowed one child's foot to slip in and get stuck. There are also ridges on the same hole which made extraction of the foot even more painful. Another child got his hand stuck in the ball drop.
Drop a rock into the top of this toy dump truck, and watch it tumble into the bucket. Your little one will "learn" numbers as the interactive truck counts each rock. Once the rocks are in the bucket, push or pull
the truck along to see the rocks rumble inside. Then, lift the hinged bucket to unload the rocks and start again while "developing" motor skills. The dump truck also includes 3 colorful
buttons that play melodies, not liked by some parents, and phrases. Requires 2 AAA batteries (batteries included for demo purposes only; new batteries recommended for regular use).

Mattel's "creepy" Aristotle, canned!
CTO Sven Gerjets didn't offer specifics: the product did not “fully align with Mattel's new technology strategy”, he said.
The Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood, had raised 14,500 signatures against the products due to privacy and childhood development concerns.
Congressman Barton and Senator Markey were given a promise from Mattel that Aristotle would use “high level encryption” and wouldn't be sharing data with advertisers.
However Mattel had told Bloomberg that Babies “R” Us and “other retailers” were discussing partnership arrangements for the Aristotle.
On September 18, 2017 Toys“R”Us, Inc. and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries and its Canadian subsidiary filed for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court. In addition, the Company’s Canadian subsidiary today intends to seek protection proceedings under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (“CCAA”). The Company intends to use the proceedings to restructure its outstanding debt and establish a capital structure to enable it to invest in growth, it claimed!
The Company’s operations outside of the U.S. and Canada, including its approximately 255 licensed stores and joint venture partnership in Asia, which are separate entities, are not part of the Chapter 11 filing and CCAA proceedings.
