  • Nice kit. Everything included. Well put together set.
I have posted photos of everything that comes in this kit, except the jar itself. The jar looks just like the photos already on this page though. And is made out of a decent quality plastic. Not super high quality but also high quality enough for the needs. I haven't actually started using this kit yet, but wanted to review the items that it comes with anyway. I don't forsee any problems with using the kit, but will update it any issues arise. I'm not particularly fond of the bunny and mushroom house miniatures that come with it, but they would be cute for a younger child. I bought this for my 11-year-old son so he probably won't include those. I couldn't see anywhere on the product page what type of seeds it came with. I was pleased to find out that it comes with two kinds. They are mixed in the bag, so they will grow randomly if you just dump the seeds out, rather than separating them first. The two types of seeds are wheatgrass, and sage. Both are edible, which I think is a nice addition, too. I imagine once they've sprouted you could replant them into a small herb garden, if you had one or wanted to make one. Then could replant more seeds inside the terrarium jar. To be clear, the light up jar lid is not "glow in the dark". It lights up because it has an LED light inside of it. This needs to be charged for it to work at night. I posted a photo of the charging cord that comes with it. I'm nervous about losing it because it's not the same kind that I use with any of my devices at home already. But I imagine it could be replaced if necessary. Something good to know in advance about the LED light is that it says in the manual it will take "2 to 3 hours to fully recharge the light". "Once the light is fully charged it should shine for approximately 4 hours." To me that seems like an awful long charging time for an awfully short amount of usage. And it could be difficult to make sure to charge it every day, if you plan to use the light every night, but also to keep the terrarium in a sunny and warm spot during the day, as recommended for growth. The sheet of stickers they give you to put on the outside of the jar is a nice little mixture of nature designs. I really like that these are not just standard stickers. They are the type that cling but are easily removable, and readjustable. Like- the clear plastic that clings to other plastic or glass, if you know what I mean. This comes with a very well made guide, that has nicely laid out step by step instructions for setting it up. And the kit has everything you need, except the water to go in the spray bottle. The spray bottle itself, by the way, is exceptionally adorable! I've never seen a spray bottle that I thought was cute before now. Lol. I'm looking forward to helping my son set his up, and watching it grow with him. I think it's a nice way to start growing things from seeds, without having to contend with the outside world and the potential dangers to sprouting plants that being outside poses. 😀 ... show more

  • Great gift
My son is six, and I'm finding myself taking care of the plant. I would recommend putting the lid on first to see where the back and front is in order to know where to put the decorations. Do that before you put the seeds in. It only took a couple of days to see the seeds sprout. They're sprouting everywhere and things look good already. Each day is nice difference in growth. I'm very happy with it even if I have to take care of it until my son learns. The room doesn't light up as much as I wanted, but it's still really nice with the lid cutouts. The light doesn't seem to last long on a charge. I have to plug it back in after an hour or so. ... show more

  • Cool to watch grow
This terrarium is super fun the set up and design for little ones. We got it all ready to go and went in a few days vacation. Came back and the green grass had grown a ton. The only draw back is that the grass gets so tall that it sticks out the top. You have to trim it back some. We probably should have waited to be home while it was growing because we missed the in between days of the grass getting taller and taller. Still a cool science project for littles though. ... show more

  • Easy and simple to put together
The item as a whole was easy and simple to assemble. I did it with my 5 year old son. We had fun and he liked it. My main problem was that was over a month ago and nothing has grown at all. We keep it moist as specified but there is no actual watering instructions besides that. I've had it in sun light we use the light given as well when we aren't getting much sunlight. The given light does not hold a charge for very long at all. It does come with a plug and I suppose you could keep it plugged in and use it but we don't have that option given it's current location and lack of plugs in our house. Other than that as I said it was fun to put together but he is super bummed out that nothing has grown. ... show more
