Galt Sneaky Spies -Horrible Science Kit for Kids - Spy Game Encourages Early STEM Learning - Memorise Facial Features, Lift Fingerprints and Code Secret Messages - For Girls and Boys Ages 6 Years Plus

We got as a present for a 8 year old. Haven't opened but looks good.

Gift received happily

Coming up to Christmas this is an ideal small present for somebody. I would say ideal stocking filler but the box is a little too bulky unless you have a wide stocking!My 6 year old daughter tried this out. She enjoyed following the instructions and it was a fun activity for her but as she's at the lower end of the recommended age range she still needed a little help. Once it's been used once that's kind of the end of it though, there's nothing really to return to again. In the box is mostly paper and card but on reflection the current price (£8) is probably fair.I've rated 5 stars as its a well thought out package overall, a one stop shop for a fun activity. If the price drastically increased I think I'd probably go down to 4 stars as there isn't a lot to go back to once they've done it once.

Child particularly liked finger print kit

The main feature of this kit is a fingerprinting set. It's great fun, and is educational as promised. It's also reasonable quality.But once you have done it, I suspect even 6 year olds will swiftly lose interest. I can't see it having much longevity, hence the price seems a little steep.

This is a great horrible Histories set. Galt toys are always good quality and this is no exception. I love the quality of the card and paper, it is durable and not cheaply printed. The box has everything you need for a super fun family activity, or for friends and siblings to master the clues together. This is a stocking filler for my son and shall be the first after-dinner game, on Christmas day, can not wait :) It has glasses, a magnifying glass, a message decoder, a blank bad guy faces board and stickers to create your baddie, and best of all cocoa powder fingerprint dusting!!! Someone's going to get caught ;) There is a cute diary of events to help you find the culprit and fingerprint suspect pages to record your captives. Great fun and a good couple of hours Post Christmas Lunch giggles. Would recommend for sure :)

This is a great project idea but it only lasts this long. There is literally one action to do with this kit and it takes all but 20 minutes. Not sure it is worth it.I would be happy to pay over £15 for a kit that would equip my budding scientists with what this kit has to offer, plus a proper little book, to keep, about forensics in a simplified version, with all the 'ridges' and 'islands' in fingerprint section and some more science experiments to do.

This is too cool. Bought it for my daughter. And let us just say we do not regret our purchase of it. This is because of how cool it is and how cool the items inside it are. You can do it multiple times with the amount of sheets it gives. I honestly without a doubt love this so much even though it is not for me I think if I were the person playing with it I would enjoy every second of it. Maybe even milli-second of it. I recommend this so I also give it five stars out of five.
