Not too long ago I came across a Thames & Kosmos chemistry set. I looked further into the company and discovered that they make a plethora of other science experiment sets. The experiments cover areas like electronics, astronomy, biology, chemistry, physics, alternative energy, and many others. The kits range from under $20 to well over $100. They are designed for children over 5 or older. The fundamental series is a great place for a young scientist to start, particularly the Core Science kit.
Learning how to ride a bike with a gyro?
I remember learning to ride a bicycle. The process is usually the same: start with training wheels, raise them gradually, and finally try without any help. The Gyrobike wheels will change this. A Gyrowheel has small embedded gyros and is powered by a built-in rechargeable battery. Settings allow for adjustment of the amount of assistance needed for the young rider. Reduce the amount of assistance gradually and you will have the youngster riding by themslves in no time. See it in action here.
