Water Filter DIY Kit for Kids - STEM Water Purification Kit with Pebbles, Sand, Filter Chamber & Paper, Educational Science and Arts Experiments for Ages 9-12

My son used this for an 8th grade science fair project. It worked well and we all learned a few things about our nasty water.

This Pinwheel Crafts DIY Water Filter Kit includes all the necessary supplies and some kinda weak instructions.The idea is to build a water filtration system using sand and pebbles.The main issue was the smaller filters didn't fit into the containers well, so you had to kind of force them down....but you could create a functional water filtering system if you were careful.But note the kit only gives you three filters, and they get blocked up with sand after one or two uses.A great idea, and still fun and educational, but the manufacturer got a lil cheap with the parts for the kit...four stars.

Use bottles instead of this kit. They had barely any pebbles to have an efficient experiment. Stick to using natural resources and gather rocks from outside. Besides, the sand here clouded our water, it goes through the entire filter. I’m just saving y’all money here.

So, this kit was ordered for my child's 1st grade class experiment. I would say it is a pretty cool experiment for the kids because her class loved watching her do the experiment with me.

I got this kit for my 10-year old son, but unfortunately it didn’t work very well. The instructions weren’t very helpful. It just showed an image with some brief text. It didn't say how much sand to put in. It had a mention of cutting up the large filter for the third cup, which was confusing. It had smaller filters but they were too big to fit in the cups. We put dirty water in the top as it said and the water at the bottom was still dirty, albeit a little lighter. My son quickly lost interest, especially when it didn't work. There was no learning experience, just disappointment. Overall, I would not recommend this kit.

I recently tried the Water Purification STEM Kit with my kids and I have to say, it was a really fun and educational experience. The kit includes pebbles, sand, three filter chambers, a filter support card, four pieces of filter paper, and step-by-step instructions.One of the things I really appreciated about this kit is that it taught my kids how water is cleaned and purified. As a parent, it's important to me that my kids understand the importance of clean drinking water, and this kit helped make that concept tangible and easy to understand.My kids love science, and this was a perfect project for them to learn and experiment. They were able to build their own water filtration system using the materials provided, and we were able to test the effectiveness of each layer of the filter using water with different levels of impurities.Overall, I highly recommend the Water Purification STEM Kit for anyone looking for a fun and educational project to do with their kids. It's a great way to teach them about the importance of clean drinking water, and it's a fun way to get them excited about science. No complaints here - we had a blast with this kit!

With millions of people lacking clean drinking water, this product offers an insight, for younger children, on how an inexpensive solution, based on simple science, could help people to gain access to cleaner water.This product would be suited to someone who is showing an interest in science or wanting to find out ways to help fellow human beings.Everything pictured is found in the box.Whether you are getting this product for someone to use as a science project or for someone who is interested learning about ways to help others, this water purification project is something to definitely consider!

The Pinwheel Crafts Water Filter Kit comes with supplies and instructions. It includes a water dropper but there weren’t any instructions which included it’s use. The grand kids had fun filling it up with the sandy water and squirting it out again. There was also a large filter that we didn’t use.The small filters were difficult to get to fit into the containers. In order for them to filter properly you have to push them all the way down. The image on the box shows funnel shaped filters that fit into the containers. Those would have been so much better. The kit only includes three filters and they become clogged with the sand so you can’t really use them more than once.Sand is included with the kit but didn’t really mix well into the water. There were also a few pebbles but no instructions as to what to do with them. We added them to the sand and poured them into the system.The grand kids were interested and we could see the filtration process as the bottom container was less dirty than the top one. They wanted to try it a second time but the filters were so clogged by the sand that the water quit going through them. Although they had fun and learned a little, I don’t feel the value of the kit is worth the price. It would be better if more filters were included so the suggestions for using other materials could be implemented.
