Bill Nye's Science Squad - VR Rocket Lab STEM Activity Kit For Kids 8-12

Don’t have a photo on this one n I am sorry but I just think Bill Nye is good for children and teaching them cool useful things. Purchased this for my grandson. The fact he could build this on his own was a good idea for me. There is help if he needs it of course, but the fact that he alone can do it on his own is a self confidence booster for any young mind

Christmas present for my 7 yr old son! He loved everything about it! Great value for the money, Educational and Fun for all ages!

This was fun to use. Good value . Good educational material. Easy to use. Lots of fun.

Ok

I am SO eager to use this - invited my nephew over (he is ten but I assure you, I will enjoy this just as much!) But, we are now due for the first snowstorm of the winter so my plans have to wait. I've looked over the entire kit. I'm fairly impressed. At first, it all seemed lightweight and, well, disposable. I suppose much of this kit is but it also has excellent instructions and, with so many activities, this is a kit I would recommend. As a former teacher I appreciated the learning aspects this kit provides however while some children can manage the activities on their own, to get the most educational benefit you will need to guide your child. I confess, I haven't checked out the VR features - I'm not a big fan of VR technology. If that changes when my nephew and I use the kit, I'll update this review! Have Fun!

Given as a gift to our nephew and he said it was the coolest

This is a piece of garbage, instructions in the book are trash. Save your time and money and build one with household items. I cannot believe Bill Nye has his name on this. We’ll see if we even launch it, huge disappointment. Edit 12/28/25 Now that the glue has dried from fixing the cut mistakes that we made from the instructions being unclear, I found that our unit did not come with the plug to hold all the launch materials in the rocket. Now we need to try and make something to plug the bottom of the rocket. If you notice most of the positive reviews are “can’t wait to use this”, “my grandkids are going to love this”, etc. most of the reviews are from folks that haven’t tried putting it together or have not used it yet. Don’t disappoint yourself, just build a DIY version and save the $40. I wish I could give this negative stars.

Grandson enjoyed this for Christmas present.
