Chemistry set
| Description: |
What to do on a cold or rainy day? Chemistry sets like this one from the 1940s provided countless experiments for kids to learn about atoms and molecules as well as the natural world. Toy laboratories like this one, as well as other educational toys such as Erector sets and model kits sometimes can set the foundation or excite interest for a related career. Richard Craft, the owner of this toy, grew up to work as a chemical engineer. |
