Crystal Growing Kit - Small
With this kit, your child can experiment with growing their very own crystals at home.
This set was specially selected for the Cambridge Science Festival thanks to its outstanding learning potential.
Following the included instructions, mix the crystal growing powder into boiling water and then watch the magic unfold.
This set lets you grow 3 different crystals.
The dyes in the kit are very strong and can stain clothes and surfaces, so make sure to wear gloves and an apron when you start your crystal growing adventure.
Suitable for ages 8 and up with adult supervision, or 14 and up for independent crystal-growing fun.
What makes this product special
Toys for learning through play
Play is essential for children’s learning, well-being, and development. Through play, children learn about themselves and the world around them.
Play helps children:
• stay curious
• focus and become absorbed in what they're doing
• take on age-appropriate challenges
• build confidence
We believe children learn best by doing things for themselves:
• by making mistakes
• by getting messy
• by falling down and getting back up again
Resilience, confidence, and courage grow through experience, one small step at a time.
That's why we carefully choose toys that encourage independence, imagination, movement, and social skills — offering just the right balance of support, freedom, and opportunities to grow.
Carefully selected toys
We carefully handpick every toy from the vast world of toys available today. The only toys that make it into our range are ones we'd be happy to give our own children.
Every toy at ToyAcademy should:
• support learning through play
• be made from durable, high-quality materials
• be safe and enjoyable for children to play with

Suitable for children aged 8 yrs. to 14+ yrs.Science is no longer something difficult and dull that adults tinker with in distant laboratories or offices. STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) toys are a perfect example of that. Playing with STEM-based toys and tools expands your child's fascination with and understanding of science.
This activity benefits important skills which help support your child's well-being and ability to learn new things:
- Benefits hand-eye coordination, a skill we use e.g. when kicking or catching the ball that comes flying at us in the playground, or when cutting an accurate line with scissors.
- A great way to help your child strengthen their logical thinking skills.
- This activity gives your child practical experience with cause/effect through play.
