I have purchased a kit elsewhere to go with the Apologia Elem. books and they don't compare with the thoroughness and quality of the Home Science Tools kit. It is well worth the money! - Monday, January 05, 2009 Easy to Use!Reviewed By: Debbie Arnn I purchased this kit to use with our Apologia Astronomy course. It was so easy to use. It literally contained everything I didn't normally keep at home. Thanks for putting tahis stuff together for homeschool families! - Tuesday, August 12, 2008 Time SaverReviewed By: Jennifer This saved us a lot of time running around to collect materials. It helped that all of the materials were also custom-made to fit the experiments, so we didn't even have to cut anything to fit. The plaster of Paris alone was worth ordering the kit (I couldn't find this product anywhere in our little town!). - Thursday, July 24, 2008 AstronomyReviewed By: Cara Perfect package exactly matched up to the text. Saves us lots of time. - Wednesday, May 28, 2008 Astronomy Science KitReviewed By: Wendy Hoffman I am thrilled to have this kit! I have four daughters, 3 homeschooled. Next year we will be using the Apologia curriculum in 3 different areas, so I knew the ready made kt was a must. We will be so busy with school and life that making sure I have everything will be hard and I will forget when I do get to town to get what we need. This way we have it and we can do all the fun activities and get the most out of this curriculum! Read More Reviews - Monday, February 04, 2008

This was a great help! We live in an area that it is hard to go to the store to purchase supplies. This kit helped me to have supplies on hand and ready to go at a momments notice. Thank you!

HUGE time saver!
I am a busy Mommy and I know myself well enough to know that I just wouldn't run around town to gather the materials to do the fun activities. I didn't want my children to miss out on the great learning times so we purchased this kit. What a blessing! It contains the items that I didn't have lying around the house. The price is great! I looked at other kits to use with this curriculum, but they were expensive. I already have index cards, rubber bands, etc. around home and I don't want to pay extra for those things. This kit has made our science time easy and rewarding!

Love it!

As a homeschooling mom of three, going from store to store in search of items just isn't how I want to spend my time. Home Science Tools has done the work for us and at a reasonable price. I've checked other sites and I've come back here and made my purchases each time. Everything comes packaged so nicely and my children are able to enjoy the experiments they look forward to doing when before just didn't happen because of tracking down the items.
