KiwiCo Colorful Chemistry

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the KiwiCo Colorful Chemistry kit, and it was honestly such a fun and educational experience. Everything comes neatly organized with clear, easy-to-follow instructions, which makes it feel exciting instead of overwhelming—especially for kids. The experiments are super engaging and colorful, just like the name suggests. Mixing colors, watching reactions happen, and learning the why behind it all keeps kids curious and focused the whole time. It doesn’t feel like “school work” at all—it feels like play with a purpose. What I really appreciate is that KiwiCo explains the science in a simple, kid-friendly way while still teaching real chemistry concepts. It encourages problem-solving, creativity, and hands-on learning. Plus, the materials feel high quality and safe. This kit is perfect for rainy days, homeschool activities, or just getting kids away from screens while they learn something cool. It’s a great balance of fun and education, and I’d definitely recommend it for curious kids who love experimenting. Rating: 9/10

The yellow was too light to make the colors. We only did one packet of each item so we have another set to try again someday. Also red and blue didn’t really make purple as I expected either, just sorta. My 8 year old was over it but my 6 year old tried all 3 experiments. Maybe we should have used all the packets at once instead of splitting it in half. Nice set of items tho.

I know this kit says it’s for 3-7 year olds, but purchased this for my 2.6 year old as part of a promotional program. It was a challenging activity for my toddler as there were a lot of instructions that were not yet appropriate for a 2.6 year old. My toddler was eager to mix everything together. It got messy fast! We made some cool artwork but I might wait until she is 3 to do the remaining experiments. For a kit appropriate for a toddler, I would recommend fewer instructions and one that allowed them to get messy.

Very engaging for my 4 year old

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My girls really enjoyed this chemistry kit. Being able to use a scientific method, see chemical reactions and color mixing really made it a fun experiment

The kit is well organized and the instructions and ingredients and all the parts are set up in a way to make it totally foolproof and fun for kids. It's definitely educational. HOWEVER, the yellow pigment powder is barely pigmented at all, while the red and blue are as expected. because of this, the color mixing experiments do not really work (blue and yellow just makes blue, red and yellow just makes red). We also found that the colors did not transfer to the paper very well and that whole portion of the activity was very meh. This could have been great but unfortunately the whole yellow thing kinda ruined it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This set was so fun for my 4 and 6 year olds! They had a great time doing the experiments and it kept them busy for quite awhile. I highly recommend this set.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter and I had so much fun with the KiwiCo Colorful Chemistry kit! The setup was super simple, everything was clearly labeled and easy to follow, which I really appreciated. She loved mixing the colors and watching the fizzy reactions, and it kept her fully entertained for about an hour. The experiments felt safe, mess-friendly, and perfect for young kids who are curious about science. It turned into both a learning activity and a creative art project. Highly recommend this kit for a fun, hands-on STEM activity you can do together!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had such a great time with the Color Chemistry Kit by KiwiCo! The kids loved watching colors mix and change right before their eyes, and every experiment felt like a tiny magic show. The instructions were super simple to follow, so they were able to do most of it on their own — which made them feel like real scientists. It was the perfect mix of fun and learning, and we’ll definitely be trying more of KiwiCo’s kits in the future!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is such a fun set! My 3 year ood had so much fun. He needed some help completing all of the steps, but he still enjoyed it and was engaged the whole time. I love that it comes in sustainable packaging, and seemed to have clean ingredients. It was very effective at engaging my child and getting them excited about science. I would definitely be interested in purchasing some of their other kits

This was a birthday gift. I bought another one for my granddaughter who loves science kits.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an excellent project box! When I got chosen for this project I was so excited not only for me but for my children also. My kids love science and anything with mixing colors, watching volcanos etc they love and I knew they were going to love this one. This box includes everything you need to get your little scientist to work and it includes step by step instructions on what you need just in case you want to repeat the experiment again maybe in your classroom if you work at a school. The scents are children approve and it’s not over powering. The value of this box is worth every penny. Your children will love this to the max.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very fun for kids and it is a great set. It comes with everything you need and is very toddler friendly. It’s enough product for more than two kids.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kid LOVED this! What a cool idea. I think we may need to sign up for the subscription because now my little one won't stop asking to do the experiments again and again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What a fun kit! I used it with my 3.5yo, she loved watching the colors foam up, just add water and watch it do its magic! Instructions were clear and I appreciate that some other options were given with every day products, we will definitely re try some of the experiments with what I have in my kitchen! The kit has everything you need to keep the mess to a minimal, trays, kids’ size bottle etc. The colors are vibrant! Overall, a super fun STEM kit - Santa will definitely check Kiwico collection for this upcoming Christmas!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely loved this chem set. As someone who has a background in science, I love being able to share that with my kids. They loved it so much they didn't want to stop. I love that the ingredients were safe for my kids, things we experience every day. They even give recommendations for experiments with normal kitchen ingredients. I would absolutely buy this again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product free for my honest review. We have used kiwico before so we were familiar with them. This was our first science kit from them though and my kids absolutely loved it. They really enjoyed mixing the colors and watching them foam up. It comes with so much stuff we were able to do the experiments multiple times.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids had so much fun with this! The kit teaches you about the scientific method in a kid friendly way. Has everything you need to do multiple projects and art. No smell and easy to clean up. I will definitely get more of these for my kids.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son loves this. Pretty much has played with it everyday since I got it. Packaging is cute simple. Definitely gets the kids excited to play and try new things.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We absolutely loved this kit. Very age appropriate for my almost 4 year old to do with a little help at times. The concept was great because we have been talking about color combos. He loved the fizzing and bubbling over. There were 3 activities in one kit; learning colors combos, making a card and learning reactions. Enough stuff came in the box for us to save and do it all again another day. We will definitely be purchasing a kit as it would make a great Christmas or birthday gift.
