I thought that this kit is well designed over all. I am using it for a homeschool co-op group. The kids find it interesting. It would be nice if the pipettes were included. Also, I thought the case could be a bit more complex to solve. Fun!

My students particularly enjoyed the blood typing exercise. We found the hair and fiber analysis to be challenging without using additional lab supplies (more slides, magnifying glasses, tweezers, additional pipettes, microscopes). This is a great kit for the money, especially if you have the additional lab supplies already. the use of Prezi slideshow also helped the students focus.

The packet is terrific, but you only get tiny samples of each substance.
