I have to agree that this is a GREAT product and introduction to children to taking care of any future pets. Yes you do have to get spring water and yes you do have to clean the water and maintain it at a certain temperature but frankly as parents we do much crazier and complicated things for our children, so this is a no brainer. We did not get a lamp! They survived with the temperature of our house. It is true that they do eat each other and the last one left which we called STAR GIRL was huge - but we made it fun for our boys and it was a great experience for them. STAR GIRL survived for roughly the 90 days.
We will start again with some new ones..... now to think of their names!

I have had mine for a long time now and they continue to breed. They are fantastic and all you need to do after purchasing this kit is buy extra food which is only £2.50 a pack. As long as the instructions are followed properly they last for years.

My boys really enjoyed watching this erupt. Easy to set up, can be used again and again if you buy new ingredients. But it's probably cheaper to do it the old fashioned way with vinegar and bicarbonate of soda in an old yoghurt pot!

I bought this for my 10 year old daughter for Christmas, and for £19.95, the quality is pretty good.
The image you see is good and clear, and it easy to use ( once you have figured it out!)
Plenty of extras to make your own slides and "be a scientist".
Be warned that the instructions are EXTREMELY brief, and to be honest we still havent quite figured out how to use the drawing/projecting adaptor, but we are more then happy with looking, observing and sketching at the moment.
A great buy if your children are interested in science - they will be fascinated!
