The Scientist (Ages 10+)
The Mechanic (Ages 12+)
Cards & Bundles
Perfect for Tweens, teens and adults!
Everything you need is included!
Creation Crate has been great for my science club!! The experiments are exactly the hands-on activities that my students appreciate and the online Chemistry lessons are very well made. Even their customer service is very responsive and helpful.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
One of the best lessons I have ever seen on the periodic table of elements.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Unlike many other chemistry sets that are content to wow students with some interesting color or state changes, these are fairly in-depth and high quality, exploring important concepts in chemistry, such as reactivity, bonds, exothermic/endothermic reactions, chemical equations and more.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Becoming a critical thinker takes work.
Flex your critical thinking muscles with the challenges and problem-solving mindset required to finish a Creation Crate project!
Experiments from the curriculum
A sneak peek at what you'll get to create!
Flame Test
Learn about the periodic table and jumping valence electrons while seeing the different colors metals can make.
Burning Magnesium
Learn what makes magnesium the metal behind 19th-century flash photography. What does the Lewis dot structure have to do with it?
Lemon Battery
Can you use lemons to power an entire house?? Let's learn about metals reactivity before you try that!
Daniell Galvanic Cell
Recreate one of the world's first batteries! Learn how a salt bridge makes this different than the lemon battery.
Metals Reactivity
Now that you have a little background knowledge, get ready to perform an experiment where you'll be able to actually see the changes taking place during a displacement reaction.
Dissolving Foil
In this experiment, you will be setting up an example of how metals have the ability to corrode other metals.
DIY Hand Warmer
Learn all about exothermic reactions while making your own Hand Warmer!
Thermal Contradiction
We just used this chemical to create a hand warmer...we can also use it to make ice?? Is that an exothermic or endothermic reaction?
Electrolyzer
What happens when you use electricity to split chemical bonds? In this experiment we'll learn about electrolysis and combustion.
Volcanic Eruption
You've learned that most chemical reactions have an effect on temperature. Let's take it to the next level by changing the rate of reaction!
Artifical Frost
What happens when molecules collide? Let's learn about collision theory in this experiment.
Pure Oxygen
Investigate another way chemical reactions can be sped up by learning about something called a catalyst.
Zinc-Carbon Battery
Welcome to your next adventure in chemistry as we get acquainted with Oxidation-Reduction reactions, also known as redox reactions.
Tin Tree
Let's revisit electrolysis! This time we're going to use it to grow crystals.
Cryptopaper
Let's use our knowledge of redox reactions to create messages that magically appear!
Blue Magic
You're becoming quite the chemistry magician!
This next experiment is also a redox reaction, but with a slight twist.
Magic Rainbow
Now we're going to learn about a special chemical called an indicator. An indicator detects the concentration of H+ ions or OH- ions.
Color Change Magic
Is it acidic or alkaline? See what happens when we add different chemicals to the indicator!
Finding Mr. Potato Head
Starch is a carbohydrate, but what is a carbohydrate and where do they come from?
Day and Night
This experiment includes starch, iodine and a color change - but probably not one that you would expect. Use everything you've learned to make a prediction!

Who is this for?
Recommended for ages 10+... but we’ve seen it all.
- Children as young as 8 years old completing the project with a parent
- College students wanting an extra hands on learning experience they aren't getting in university
- Parents wanting to create meaningful experiences with their teenagers
- Homeschool parents wanting to include chemistry in their curriculum
- Adults wanting to start a new interesting hobby

What's inside?
Everything you need to complete the experiments! This includes various (very safe) chemicals and materials depending on the experiment you're doing.
Do I need any prior experience?
No experience necessary! You can start as a complete beginner and have no problem finishing (and understanding) the first project.
What's inside the online classroom?
Inside the Online Classroom you'll find step-by-step instructions on how to perform the experiments, and video tutorials.
You'll also get an overview of common mistakes, exercises to test your new knowledge, and a messaging board to help troubleshoot and answer any questions you have.
Do you offer any support?
We offer one-on-one support through email, phone, and video!
No matter what problem you are trying to troubleshoot, Creation Crate will get on a call with you and go step by step through your project until it is completed.
Just email support@creationcrate.com whenever you need it!
