Who doesn’t love dessert? I never realized the huge role science plays in baking. Yinz can always consult Alton Brown to learn the science behind baking that perfect sweet treat. However, there is another way to tie the two together and learn from the luxury of your home. This combo Tiny Baking and Tiny Science Kit toys replicate items found in most kitchens and labs.
Tiny toys are miniature replicas of kitchen utensils and lab paraphernalia. Using real food products, you bake your favorite recipes included in the set without realizing there’s science involved. If you’re not a tiny chef, try your hand at tiny science experiments. Both come with everything you’ll need (except food) to dabble in the culinary and scientific fields. Either way, you will have hours of fun and gain valuable exposure to two diverse, yet connected areas of interest.
Learn Science by Baking with Tiny Baking and Tiny Science Kits
The SmartLab Toys for tiny baking and tiny science are a great way to spark interest in your child for the arts and science. Tiny chefs, mini enthusiasts, and tiny scientists will have hands-on exposure to creating tiny edible bites or perform real science.
The tiny baking kit teeny-tiny tools and pans actually bake real food. This 17 piece set includes a rolling pin, wee-knife, pizza cutter, mixing spoon, 3 wee-spoons, mixing bowl, pie pan, pie server, sheet pan, silicone cake and cupcake molds, 2 silicone finger mitts, and a 48 page recipe book. An included storage bin allows you to store your goodies. The cookbook in the tiny baking kit isn’t your run of the mill cookbook. It actually explains the science behind the process, how ingredients interact, and the reason why there is an order to follow when you add the ingredients.
The tiny science 24 piece set includes a funnel, petri dish, beaker, Erlenmeyer flask, magnifier, test tube, pipette, graduated cylinder, measuring scoop, balance scale, and 3 weights. A miniature cabinet is also included for storage and easy transfer when you’re going to stay over at Grandmas. A mini instruction book is included with 20 tiny experiments to try.
I do a lot of baking and can state with certainty that baking is a science. You need to be exact in the measurements and understand the science behind adding/mixing ingredients in a certain order. The best part of these tiny toys is they are the perfect fit for little hands. It’s the perfect way to spend quality time with your children and have fun. They won’t realize that they are learning science that they will use for years to come.
