Features

  • What is a Terrarium? It is a miniature garden within a container that simulates a natural environment. So, let your child discover the beauty of nature by creating their own beautiful terrarium with this all-inclusive kit. Watch as it grows by day and glows at night with the innovative LED light under the lid.
  • Grows by Day - Glows at Night: Beneath the lid, there is a built-in innovative LED light that transforms the experience into something magical. At night, just hit the small switch to turn on the light and watch how your terrarium turns into a gorgeous illuminated tabletop garden. You have to see it to believe it! The light can easily be recharged with the included Micro-USB cable.
  • Kit Includes: Terrarium jar (4"x6"), light-up jar lid, Micro-USB charging cable, clear and easy step-by-step instruction booklet, vermiculite soil, blue sand, river rocks, wheatgrass and chia seeds, small bunny and mushroom miniatures, removable stickers for decoration, spray bottle, and wooden stick to aid in planting the seeds. The ultimate arts and crafts for kids & Stem projects for Kids.
  • A Fun & Educational Gift for All Ages: It's not often that a science project can be fun and engaging, but this terrarium kit achieves both! It fascinates children as soon as they pull it out of the box. With the freedom to layer the rocks, sand, soil, and stickers as they please, every child is guaranteed to have a blast.
  • Rechargeable LED Light Lid Easy & Safe Charging: Be sure to fully charge the terrarium lid before first use so the built-in LED light powers on reliably. Use only the included standard USB charging cable with a max 5W adapter (no fast chargers), as high-speed charging may trigger safety protections and prevent the light from turning on.

  • 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

  • Easy to set up on their own
Easy for a 11-year-old to follow the directions and set it up on their own. Comes with a plug in attachment for the lid and it charges just fine. So far the charges lasted over a week. Nothing has sprouted yet but it’s cute and doubles as a nightlight. The size is that of a large mason jar. Makes a great gift. ... show more

  • A great educational gift that kids will enjoy.
This is a great STEM Science Kit. My granddaughter loves it. The container is clearly visible and shows the layers needed to grow the seeds. The child gets to watch the growth, water the plant and put together the terrarium. Grandparents, invest in this long lasting terrarium. It is educational and fun to view daily. It comes with all supplies and worth the money. ... show more

  • Lighted
Great product. My grandkid loved it. All pcs were easy to place inside terrarium and all the other products were received in good shape. The light makes unit look very nice.

  • 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

  • Fun project....missing parts
It was a blast to put together with my 11 year old son. However the website that it originally came from was down at the time as I was hoping for some more guidance and explanation of the project for me and my son. Tried to YouTube but wasn't very successul in what I could find for kids. All DIY terrariums. I will be purchasing or maybe just doing a DIY terrarium. But the seeds didn't grow very well, just some random grass pieces. The light did work great, but it only lasts 4 hours max so you have to remember to charge the cover everyday. No specifications on if it should be in direct sunlight during the day or anything about the care of it. Just instructions on which layers to put on when. Also missing the spray bottle that was supposed to come with it in the box. With the website down there was no way for me to even reach out to the company. So terrarium for an 11 year old! YES!! Which is why I gave it 3 stars. Great idea and fun to do, but a functioning website and short video about terrariums geared towards kids would have made it much more enjoyable and lasted.... Get a terrarium but not from this company because there is no support at all. ... show more

  • Seems decent if you get a new and fresh version. Updated.
Edit Update: The company reached out to me without prompting and is sending out a new lid along with fresh seeds. They were very helpful and responsive. The jar and little pieces are cute, especially for a first time setup. However the jar lid on ours doesn't charge so it has to remain plugged in overnight. The seeds also seem old or the seed bag was slightly torn but they aren't sprouting. We're keeping the jar and going to grab seeds at a local shop. ... show more

  • Fun Gift, But the Seeds Never Grew
This was purchased as a Christmas present. Unfortunately, the grass and other plants never grew, which was disappointing. The idea was fun, but it did not work as expected.
