Wand's the Matter lets children create an 18- inch baton containing all three states of matter: solid, liquid and gas. It's a wonderful, fun toy for younger children. They love watching the action of solid (sequins), liquid (water) and gas (air) in the 18-inch clear plastic tube. You supply the air and water; the kit includes everything else. The properties of the three states of matter are bound to stick in young minds when they relate them to their very own wand. They can also experiment with the differences in action between less and more air and with other liquids or solids. Each kit comes complete with an instruction booklet including concept explanations and teaching suggestions. Wands and caps are also available without sequins, instructions or packaging.
