Science Take-Out kits are specifically designed to provide a safe and positive science learning experience in non-lab settings. We have been careful in our selection of chemicals – many of which are common household chemicals such as food coloring, vinegar, ammonia and baking soda. We sometimes use simulated “chemicals” as safer substitutions for the real thing (for example, using yellow colored water to simulate urine). We also use manipulative models (in some of our kits) and illustrations as safe methods to convey scientific information.
Student instructions contain specific safety information and instructions for clean-up. Teacher guides contain MSDS sheets which describe the chemicals used in each kit.
Despite our efforts to make our science kits “safe”, our products may contain potentially harmful items and/or chemicals that could cause injury if misused. Therefore, our products should be used only as directed, and they should be safely stored out of the reach of children and pets. Minors (under 18) should use our kits only with adult supervision.
The purchaser of any Science Take-Out product must assume full responsibility for its proper use and for any and all liability associated with its purchase. No responsibility or liability of any kind related to the purchase of our products can or will be accepted by Science Take-Out, LLC.
