Thames and Kosmos Rainbow Colored Gummy Candy Lab - Create Your Own Unique Candies for Kids Ages 6+

It is a great product; however I found it for much cheaper on Amazon. I ultimately purchased here because the shipping is half the time of Amazon.

I gave this to my niece for her birthday because she loves gummy bears and she loves unicorns. The delight on her face when I presented the unicorn lab was priceless! We opened it and started working with it right away. The directions are easy to follow and with just a few household ingredients we made some amazing and delicious gummy unicorns. I highly recommend this for every child for unlimited fun!

This entertained the kids for at least an hour. I wasn't sure they would like it but it was a good project for the kids to play round in....Now, I let them make it...but I didn't let them eat it. So can't comment on how it taste....BUT it is a good project....a good break for the kids.

This one is all good. You get everything you need, and the results are very well received. The kit is easy to understand and follow, the ingredients you need are included and it really does a great job. We didn't add citric acid for the sour candies, but the regular ones were great. Learning about polymers was achieved and it was painless. If I had to present a downside, it'd be that I have to go buy more of these as they have been the topic of the last couple of days!

I was literally expecting a huge mess but the kids followed the directions exactly as they where and we was mess free. This is so simple to make and so much fun for kids. I had them take turns with mixing colors and putting in mold tray. It teaches them about measuring which I really loved. Unfortunately the Gummies never made it to the bags and stickers because as soon as they was chilled they dipped them in the sour mix and ate them. They was super yummy and now they want a Gummy Candy Lab of there own. Absolutely recommend this for kids.

I expected this to be more like the bug labs I grew up with, but it's actually more like a science experience experience that teaches you things...for instance I didn't know citric acid is what makes candy sour! Follow directions carefully and you should get a pretty tasty (possibly sour) batch of candy. This was much better than I thought it would be, I feel like it is a really good experience for kids...it says ages 6 and up, but my 4 and a half year old is able to handle it too. Highly recommend this for a birthday or Christmas gift...definitely better than the other options and better than what I grew up with. Plus, only 30 calories in 8 pieces (if you use citric acid you won't want more than 8).

My daughter had a lot of fun making these gummies. Easy to understand instructions and very easy to measure powder and water. I think the hardest part was getting the liquid mixed and into those tiny molds, the cloud was the easiest to fill and remove. Seem to firm up in 10 minutes in the fridge but still very sticky. She did not like the taste of these gummies, but said they were better with the sour mix on them. All in all she said she hoped the kit would be more fun and tasty.

This candy lab was a good way to spend an afternoon while it's been cold outside with my 7 yr old grandson. It comes with assorted flavors, molding tray, bags and stickers for labeling and sour mix. The flavors weren't bad, the sour mix will make you pucker, but are pretty good! Also comes with science fun facts information! Everything is pretty direct, and easy to follow directions. I Rubbed a tiny bit of oil on the trays which helped the molds pop out super easy. After the mixes are done, you could use jello, I'm sure. All in all, we enjoyed this candy lab very much, and it's a nice way to get kiddos from cell phones and TVs to do something productive.

I always try to find games and other activities to play and do with my grandkids when they visit and this Rainbow Gummy Lab was one of them. I had so much fun with my granddaughters while making our own gummy worms. You get everything you need, including the 5 different flavors in powder form that you just mix with hot water in the provided mixing bags. Then you add the mixed solutions to the mold you get with the kit, set it in the fridge for a few minutes to let it set, and that's it. While I didn't care too much for the way they tasted, my grandkids did.

We were so excited to make our own gummies! We love all types of flavors and brands of gummies, forgein ones, too. It was fun to make and after the set in the fridge we tried them. We tried the white vanilla flavor first. Gross! Everyone ran to the trashcan, not able to finish even one. We thought, maybe it's just that flavor? So we tried them all. So gross!! The only flavor that was edible was the red. My 7 year old liked only the red. My 10 year old and I didn't like any of them. I'm so sad the flavors were gross.
