Are the instructions and VR elements easy to understand and use?

To be honest it's a little tricky because you start in AR then move to VR, but once you get the handle on it, it is AMAZING and so worth the learning curve.

Can i watch the vr videos using my oculus quest instead of the phone based headset that is included?

No the content is only accessible through the Bill Nye app and activated by the book in the kit.

Does this Kit contain everything you need to perform the experiments or do you need to buy a bunch of additional supplies?

Comes with most of everything, you need just a few household items: cooking oil, water, vinegar... but main supplies all included.

Great Customer Service!

We got this for our daughter for Christmas. Upon opening it, we found various pieces were not included. I reached out to Abacus Brands customer service and they quickly responded to my issue. They responded that my missing parts issue was not one they regularly encountered. They sent a new box which had all parts included! The customer service I received was top notch!This science kit is great for all future scientists out there! I highly recommend!

Good value.

This was a great gift for my precocious 6 year old grandson. The VR glasses are great and well made. My grandson loved it. It says for 8-12 year olds. A parent definitely needs to help a 6 year old figure out how to use it. I wish they would provide a video for instructions. Read instructions before you give it to a child so you can show them if they have trouble using them. Experiments are pretty simple and safe.

The Goggles are tough for the little to use.

It’s a cute concept but for the price, you are better off getting an experiments book from the library.

My kid begs for science.

This kit is worth every penny. We are a family of teachers and we bought this kit to encourage our kids, ages 7 and 2, to do some hands on science with us with all of his time together during Safer at Home. We used to love to stream Bill Nye the Science Guy before disney decided to stop showing it and we were sad when it was unavailable, so we were happy to get this set of experiments for Christmas. Both kids love the experiments even though they are younger than 8. The 7 year old can grasp the concepts, but the 2 year old just loves to participate with the family. The headset has adjustable eye pieces, so it fits both kids. There are some experiments that require buying some items, but it’s totally worth it to have my 7 year old beg me to learn science all day.The VR part of this is very rewatchable: The first experiment has you fly over an erupting volcano in VR: turn around and see the helicopter!
