So fun! My son loves space and really enjoyed the activities in this kit.

Astronaut Starter Kit Book Set

Haven't opened set because I bought it for my grandson for Christmas. I know he is positively going to love it. You address so many learning modalities. We love all your products. Wish you were around when my children were youngsters.

This was an amazing set! It was a gift for my 6 year old who loves science and engineering…and for a project for space study in homeschool. The rocket launcher was so fun — he loved it. And we loved building the solar system model together. The book that came with it was excellent and is a family favorite now. Thanks for such a great crate!
