Science Toy Review

I love these SmartLab Challenge quiz books. They have one each for 1st through 4th grades and then the Human Body Challenge, and my new favorite, the SmartLab Weird and Gross Challenge. I haven’t tried the Human Body one yet, but I did get the 1st Grade Challenge for my six-year-old and now we’re playing with this one.

I think the grade ones are pretty age appropriate, and this one is suitable for kids up to about 12 or maybe 13. Actually with this one, some of the questions are more trivia like, and it doesn’t matter how old you are- you may just have to guess. But the questions are indeed entertaining. I ended up playing this one with my wife while sitting on the deck the other night and we had a good time learning some weird and gross facts that we would have never learned otherwise.

If you haven’t tried any of SmartLab’s educational toys, this is a good one to start with. At about $19 US, it’s a good value for the price.
