The slime is super fun to make. It's very easy to make trust the process. It's just a lot of stirring. The kids absolutely adored it. Now to the putty, the putty was not so fun. It already comes and it's made and is very hard. I hate messy stuff in my house and the clean up was easy! They really did enjoy it.
Fun kit!

Every parent loves slime! Just kidding! I would never purchase this for my kiddo. But the National Geographic Slime & Putty Science Lab, is a super cool kit! It comes with everything necessary to make the slime(except water). I love this idea for summertime outdoor activities!

This is a neat set of slime and putty! I like that some came premade that have fun features like metallic or bouncy. Many of the slime kits where we get to make it are very similar. We enjoyed that some were hands on and others were ready to play. Plus they are all different colors which appealed to my kiddos.
Great kid gift

What an awesome rainy day activity for my kids! This kit was very easy and so much fun. It has all different kinds of slime you can make from liquid, metallic, and bouncing. It also wasn’t messy- which is a total win for me! The instructions were also very easy to follow.
So much science fun

The girls had so much making the slime. It was a lot of work for them though, me and dad had to step in for long time it took off rapid, strong stirring. Their favorite though was the bouncy putty. Will definitely buy again!
The best slime kit ever!

Our 10 year old loved this National Geographic Slime & Putty Lab! The glow in the dark slime powder really works and really glows in the dark which is amazing!! The bouncing putty is so fun and the metallic putty shimmers! The liquid slime is perfect consistency for fun!
Fun for the scientific child

Very entertaining.

This was really cool and fun. The only thing is the slime takes longer than it says to develop. It should sit for a little bit and then turns to slime. The putty was fun. One was much softer than the other(the bouncy). It was a nice little project to do with the kids on a rainy day.

My kids have had endless hours of fun with this kit. It comes with 3 pre-made slimes and 2 make your own slimes. The make your own slimes were super easy to do. All you need is water then you just mix the powder and let it sit until it comes together. The pre-made slimes are fun to play with as well. There’s 3 different types of slime included. They aren’t sticky or messy at all. The booklet contains different activities you can use the slime for as well. Definitely great for slime obsessed kids.

This was a hit at my daughters birthday party. All of the kids enjoyed playing with the different textures of the slime and putty. I really liked that it was so kid friendly and easy to use. They made slime and followed the directions and it all went smoothly. I think the quality is great too, there was no slime getting stuck to hands, clothes or hair. I found myself holding onto slime while my faughter played and i ended up playing with it because it was a good sensory experience even for me. I would recommend to others. Great value and quality.
Great fun with the kids!

This fun science lab came with one ready made super sticky, but not messy pink slime, two slime projects: one glow in the dark slime and a regular one, and two other varieties: metallic and bouncy putty. My 6 and 9 year old had a blast playing with this science kit!

Love this slime and putty set for gifts. It has the slime pre made and the others are powdered and come with directions to mix to create the slime/ putty. Great to add to gifts and my 8 year old enjoyed it! Wouldn’t recommend for very young children due to the slime stickiness/mess.

I was excited to have my daughter try this kit because one, she LOVES slime and second, because as a homeschool parent, I am often looking for fun ways to incorporate science into play. The kits provides three types and slime and two types of putties. Instructions and a Learning Guide are included, but vague l. I have to say I’m disappointed in the “Guide”. It is missing instructions and explanations the for magnetic putty. There is no magnet included to observe how it would react. I went to the product’s website to watch an instructional video and after all of that, the magnetic putty isn’t even magnetic. There was no reaction to any of the magnets we tried. So at best, this just a slime kit unless you incorporate the science yourself.

My kids are huge slime fans. This kit has various kinds. 3 are made, 2 you make yourselves. We followed instructions and put powder in bowl with warm water. It says 3-7 mins. It took longer than that.It was relatively still sticky when we put it in the container. However the next day, the consistency had improved and was easier to play with.

This is a fun Slime & Putty Kit. The Kit comes with two premade Putty’s and one premade slime. It also comes with two make your own slime packets. The slime is easy to make, you just add water. The slime is stretchy and has a thick texture. It is fun to play with. The only downside is the smell.
Fun, entertaining and easy to do.

My three kids, ages 9,12 and 15, all had a great time making and playing with slime. This slime and putty science lab by National Geographic was packaged nicely, offered a nice variety in colors and directions were easy to follow. Adult supervision is definitely recommended to prevent messes when mixing the ingredients but both slime packets came out perfectly. My only dislike was that it only came with 2 slime making kits. The other three slime/putty were already made and I felt that didn’t belong inside a science kit. Would still recommend because my kids had fun, shared and were able to work together.
Nice kit!

I got this for my 11 year old because she loves all things slime and putty. She liked the putty in this kit and found the slime to be fairly easy to make (she said it was runny for a bit but once she kept stirring it came together). The colors are vibrant and the consistency is nice. Cute kit for a slime loving kid.
