Advent Calendar - Shocking Science
HB

This brand is fantastic, right down to the details. I was wary these would be a repeat of most science kits (half abandoned birthday toys) but actually it’s creative and engaging, not simply things to mix together but interesting activities that keep my 9y old excited for the days to come. You can’t go wrong with any of the advents in this brand, excellent product!

This is a fantastic substitution for the traditional chocolate advent calendars. Everything is well-thought through and of high quality. It really only takes about 5min to do each experiment. We'll be returning next year, if not earlier, to have some fun activity on rainy day.

Ottimo. Il Calendario è piaciuto moltissimo a mio figlio. Ogni giorno un nuovo esperimento. Tutto perfetto. Se però ci fossero state le istruzioni in italiano sarebbe stato il massimo.

Je cherche des calendriers de l'avent qui ne sont pas des bonbons et qui offrent des trucs différents. J'aimais le concept des petites expériences à faire et certaines sont intéressantes, mais quand on ouvre la boîte de la journée, on se rend compte qu'on doit utiliser des trucs qu'on n'a pas nécéssairement sous la main (huile, vinaigre, lait) ou qu'on doit cuire ou préparer des choses pour le lendemain (temps de repos)Donc pour le parent : lire le livre au complet avant de commencer pour mieux gérer l'expérience avec les enfants.De plus mon ado de 14 ans n'était pas super impressionné alors qu'il aime normalement ce genre de choses. Plus à faire avec de jeunes enfants, je dirais entre 5 et 12 ans (avec l'aide du parent évidemment!)

Agréable à faire, mais le bémol, il faut prévoir plusieurs heures / jours pour faire certaines activités.

I got this for my kids and they loved it. Worth the money.

Wasn’t expecting much based on previous advent calendars in general. However, was very pleasantly surprised. Excellent quality and super fun for my 8 year old. It would require direct supervision for a younger kid but 8-15 is great. It requires the ability to read. Some days it’s very simple and straightforward but some days are bit more complex. It’s well designed. Would absolutely recommend!Pricey but advent calendars (other than chocolate ones) are too expensive in general.

Un bellissimo calendario dell'avvento con tanti piccoli esperimenti e giochi per bambini dai 7-8 anni! Veramente ben fatto, di facile traduzione e con spiegazioni molto chiare. L'unico neo è il prezzo, abbastanza alto per un calendario...però devo dire che per gli esperimenti sono compresi tutti i materiali. Molto soddisfatta e anche mio figlio! Suggerisco di farne uno anche su piccoli giochi in campo elettrico ed elettronico!

Aside from a couple experiments not working out (could have been our error) this was a really fun advent for my kid and I to do together over the month of December. They did well explaining why the experiments happen as well which is nice, and my child had a lot of fun doing the experiments and seeing the end resultsI hope they come out with a new one in 2023 with new experiments because I'd do it again..

A great leap away from subpar chocolates the kids get tired of after a week. Boxes are well constructed and presented and the experiments are easy enough for my 11 year old to manage on his own for the most part. The book explaining the science behind the experiments is a bonus.

So far it's been super fun even for my teenager who is in all advanced classes. Definitely worth it. Sometimes the less in lesson is better, fun and makes for great memories. CAUTION NOTE: Don't take for granted that these little experiments may be simple and not read the instruction book before doing each experiment!! In the booklet they have the regular instruction and also a factorial. Be sure to read everything! I don't want to tell you what we did, nothing serious came of it and we had fun results but we could have had a few more goes with this experiment if we had not missed the fact note. Nevertheless, it was a great memory and lots of fun. All of them have been so far. My child thinks it's just a blast and can't wait to get home everyday from school and now that school is out can't wait each day to open up one of those little boxes to find out what's next.I was worried at first when I bought this but I'm so glad that l did! Thank you! Great Advent fun!💕
