happycc Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 complete? Or do you still need to go hunting around for more stuff.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sagira Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 I want to know more about these too. Thinking about getting one for ds for Christmas. Can I piggyback and ask which ones are the best ones to get?:bigear: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missmoe Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Complete though I think I had to buy a battery for the Electrical Connection one. We've used and enjoyed Electric Connections Clever Levers Energy and Motion Gears at Work Work: Plane and Simple Earth and Sun Soil Studies Weather Wise And just wanted to throw out there--the Math in a Nutshell Kits! Each kit focuses on one or two math topics and provides 6 games to reinforce the math concepts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EKS Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 They are the most complete kits I've ever used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masaki Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 They are the most complete kits I've ever used.:iagree: We used the Living Things Cluster kit last year and everything we needed was there. Granted we didn't do every single experiment, but we did share out kit with friends when we were done with it and they had plenty materials to do the experiments they wanted to do too. I want to say that the kits come with enough materials to do each activity up to 5 times---but you'll have to check their website for that exact info. It may vary kit to kit. They're nice kits, have fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephanieZ Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 I have half a dozen. They are very complete. The only things you have to dig up are EXTREMELY common, such as a pencil, or a penny, or a paper towel. Even when I've taken them to a beach house, I've still been able to dig up any required items on the fly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sagira Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Okay, I'm definitely getting one for ds; thanks! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tammyw Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 I posted this question on another thread, but wanted to verify this here. Are these kits really $159 to $199 and up? I just looked and was surprised at how much more expensive they were than other kits I've seen suggested. I guess it sounds like if they are meant to be used by multiple kids, it makes sense, but we really wouldn't use it that way, so I'm not sure it would be worth it for us.

That is the classroom version. They are $40. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tammyw Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 (edited) That is the classroom version. They are $40. Okay, that is what I was hoping for, and what I'd thought previously. I couldn't find the home version today, for some reason. I'll have to go back and look. I am clearly off my game today, lol! ETA: Can someone provide a link to the home version kits? I really can't find them now. I must be blind. Edited October 4, 2011 by tammyw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's the link to the main page (for life science anyway): http://www.delta-education.com/siangallery.aspx?subjectID=7&subID=5&menuID=66 - when you click on "View Details" by a kit, you'll see the different price options, starting at $39.

mcconnellboys Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Mostly complete, although there are sometimes optional activities that may call for something else.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
