Are Science Take-Out kits safe for using at home?
Science Take-Out kits are specifically designed to provide a safe and positive science learning experience in non-school settings. We have been careful in our selection of chemicals – many of which are common household chemicals such as food coloring, vinegar, ammonia and baking soda. We sometimes use simulated “chemicals” as safer substitutions for the real thing (for example, using yellow colored water to simulate urine). We also use manipulative models (in some of our kits) and illustrations as safe methods to convey scientific information.
