Pinwheel Crafts Water Filter kit helps kids understand the problem at hand by recording observations and using those observations to come to evidence-based conclusions.
Pinwheel Crafts brings the wonder of a science classroom into the hands of a child with their Water Filter Kit. While the experiment setup can be time-consuming, users benefit from working to understand the problem at hand, recording observations and using those observations to come to evidence-based conclusions. Although this gift may not immediately seem like an engineering toy, the skills learned by the children playing with the toy are certainly transferable and overall valuable in their development. ― Jaden Hernandez, Purdue Reviewer

While this kit is fantastic for younger children, it should be noted that due to the safety of its primary materials, setup and tear down would almost certainly require the assistance of a trusted adult.
