## Overview

The Thames & Kosmos Genetics & DNA Lab is a comprehensive STEM kit designed for kids aged 10 and above. It includes 40 pieces and a detailed 48-page manual, allowing young learners to explore genetics, heredity, and DNA through hands-on experiments and engaging activities.

## Description

Thames & Kosmos Genetics & DNA Lab STEM kit offers an immersive exploration of genetics, covering topics such as heredity, DNA, and trait expression through engaging science experiments. Explaining the concept of inheritance, dominant and recessive genes, and the structure of DNA, the kit also allows children to assemble their own DNA model and conduct experiments. Additionally, this science kit enables kids to visualise genetic material, decode the genetic code, analyse DNA evidence, and cultivate bacteria colonies, among other things. Designed for kids aged 10 and above, the model kit includes 40 pieces and a comprehensive full-colour, 48-page manual, making it an ideal gift choice for budding biologists and curious learners alike. It won the Parents' Choice Gold Award in 2009 and was part of Homeschool.com's Top 15 Educational Gifts of 2008.

Review: not worth the price. experiments don't work well. - it is way to expensive compared to the utility. products were way too cumbersome and dint work at all. it was a birthday gift which my son asked for and he was very excited for it. but the product was too disappointing and not at all worth the price.

## Features

- Kids Science Kit: Explore the fascinating realm of genetics with this STEM kit. The biology model kit delves into heredity, variation in organisms, and DNA, the molecule that contains the genetic code of life
- Informative Model Kit: The kit will enable kids to explore the concept of inheritance and understand how traits are transmitted from parents to children, gain insights into dominant and recessive genes, and engage in trait expression prediction games
- Science Experiments: Covering the topics of the biology of reproduction, the components of cells, and how chromosomes are combined and copied, our kit also allows the assembly of a DNA model to examine its elegant double-stranded helical structure
- Learning Resources: The science kit will allow kids to see genetic material firsthand, crack the genetic code and find out how nucleotides fit together, analyse DNA evidence to identify suspects and solve a crime, and even cultivate a bacteria colony
- For Age 10+: Designed for kids aged 10 and above, the STEM kit comes with 40 pieces and a full-colour, 48-page manual. Containing information about how mutation affects genes and how scientists clone plants and animals, it makes for a great gift for kids
