Wow in the World: Light-Up Terrarium

Get growing and glowing! Make your own awesome glowing terrarium with real plants. Use the included cress seeds and growing containers to create your own plant display and observe as the seeds germinate and grow. Decorate your terrarium with glowing materials like glow-in-the-dark stars and glowing plastic pebbles, as well as some faux plants. At night, your terrarium will light up a room when the included UV LED string lights (like blacklights) shine on the phosphorescent materials and make them glow.

A fun, eight-page, full-color experiment guide assists you in setting up your terrarium and provides exciting educational content about plants and phosphorescence. 

Once you’ve grown the plants included in the kit, fill your twinkling terrarium with new plants over and over as you develop a lifelong appreciation for plants and gardening.

The terrarium makes a great addition to a child’s bedroom. Use it as a nightlight! The kit also includes a pair of tweezers to add to your collection of classic STEM tools.
