Just Add Milk on the Weekends for an Easy Science Experiment for Children




Can you believe it? It is almost the beginning of the school year. This means that it is crunch time for our At-Home Summer School. Recently, we received the "Just Add Milk - Science and Art Kit" from Griddly Games. This is a great kit for our family because we absolutely love science (especially chemistry and physical science) and my father-in-law wants us to integrate art for our little one as well. This is why the "Just Add Milk - Science and Art Kit" was a great fit for our family!




This post contains affiliate links to help you build your shopping list and travel list for your family. We are passionate about the product and the experiences listed in this post, but we also wanted to provide easy links you can click to purchase products for your busy lifestyle.


This kit is perfect for your family to have on hand as a rainy day or a "much too hot to go outside" day. We definitely have those days in Texas. With this kit, you have to watch what happens when you JUST add milk to the color solution!



This kit includes the following items:

5 - heavy absorbency paper sheets
4 - 10ml bottles of food coloring
1 - 10ml bottle of liquid soap
1 - science and art activity booklet

This simple science and art kit is a color way to introduce science and surface tension. Each kit also includes multiple exciting at-home experiments for the entire family!
