Publisher's Description of Just Add Fruit & Veggies Organic Science & Art Kit
What do you do with all your old fruits and veggies – no need to throw them out! This cool STEAM kit will deliver hours of exploration, creativity, learning and enjoyment. With more than 20 science and art activities, Just Add Fruits & Veggies will bring hours of fun and enjoyment while learning chemical reactions, osmosis, germination and study of electricity!

Instead of simple, nothing-can-go-wrong science activities, these Just Add... science and art activity kits encourage students to actually experiment using the scientific method. Everything needed comes in the unique package, except the “just add” component. The small booklet provides directions for multiple experiments, but also encourages adding more or less of certain ingredients to see differences in properties of the finished product. It also suggests different ways to test the products and hypothesize reasons for differences.
