I want to try this as an project for a class. I have 17 kids. I was thinking they would make a mini project. How far would 1 sampler go?

well each piece of colored clay isn't big but if your students do something different or use only a certain amount of each color they could make it a decent amount

It came with a sampler pack. Don't recall how many since I went through them rather quick

Depending on the size you're making them lol. My daughter made about 7 of them. They're ridiculously sweet, you don't want too many of them anyhow.

yes; I played with my 2 grandkids, and a couple of times one of their parents played with us. I think more can play, but there aren't a huge # of pieces.

If you had 4 7 year olds it would be fine or for a family of 4 or 5. A lot more kids u need bigger. My impressions As a former teacher & camp director.

The nespresso comes with a small sampler pack. I don't remember how many, but I want to say 6-8

You can do a bunch of the experiments with what is available in the kit. There are some experiments that might need things you generally find at home. There are indeed a few that I believe need some additional things.

We actually used this at a church event with several age ranges of kids from 4 years old to 4th grade. The youngest that could do this without a lot of assistance was about 6. The 4 & 5 year old children needed more assistance. This is a generalization, of course, but that's about the youngest that played with it and had any interest. The box lists choking hazards for children under 3 so we didn't have those children at do it. My 8 year old daughter actually got very good at this and wound up helping the younger ones. All of the kids older than 6 could figure it out pretty quick and enjoyed playing with it. We actually used this at a church event with several age ranges of kids from 4 years old to 4th grade.

Yes, I think it would be too small for an entire class (of 15 or 20 students) to use. I think it is more for home school or for a kid's room. I like using it with my kids, but even with three or four of us standing around it, it gets a little crowded.

My kids did it together. But there is 2 of them. 9&10 years old. I supervised and double checked their work.

If you use sample sizes. They're only 2 1/4" tall. That's a cute idea, by the way. You should be able to find bigger ones for that purpose.

There are seventy (70) experiments listed in the booklet included with the kit. The list of items that you need but are not included in the kit, is rather extensive, and includes about 33 items. Those items, helpfully, are listed on the front page of the booklet, along with a list of items included. There is also a "You Get It" list of ingredients under each experiment that calls for something that is not included in the kit. About 30 of them have such a list. Some of the items you need to get can probably be found around the average household. Some may require a shopping trip. I hope this helps you out. :)

Wonderful idea! If you make different types of pies I would plan on 4 small servings per pie because guest might want to taste more than one pie flavor. Three servings per pie if all the pies are the same flavor. I can make these little pies last two days as after a big meal my husband and I are satisfied with a small portion. Mary

A couple hundred to make a decent one. I have don't have enough cover the bottom and I probably have around 50 in mine. My kids don't care. They have a blast in this. I can fit 4 kids in there!

There is more than enough matieral within the packets to get more than one go out of them. Multiple experiments pull from them, so they give a generous quantity, aside from the fact that a little bit goes a very long way. Something that is nice too, is that ordinary household ingredients are used for the experiments so that you can buy more if you need.

There are several pieces Melissa, I would assess how old the kid is and also you may want to look for something else because you need so many other things to do a lot of the experiments.

I had a four year old and a six year old play with it at my house. The 4 year old could not do it. The 6 year old made mistakes but was able to make the designs and have fun. With a little practice he would have been fine. So the first few times, parent will need to direct and assist, but then it will be enjoyed.
