Bacteria Growing Kit

Growing bacteria at home is actually pretty simple. This bacteria growing kit makes the process even more simple and educational. With adult supervision, kids in grade 3 and up can experiment with bacteria found in the air, on household surfaces, and even on their own hands! Buy everything you need for less, including a manual explaining how to grow bacteria in a petri dish. You can culture a microbe colony that’s large enough to see without a microscope. Kids can also test the anti-bacterial effects of common household cleaners. Perfect to use for a science fair project!

• Blotter paper
• 2 bottles of agar
• Forceps
• Iodine
• 9 pairs of gloves
• 20 petri dishes
• 18 swabs
• 8 zip-close bags (for disposing of used petri dishes)
