The Young Scientists Club Wins National Awards and Launches Their Award-Winning Science Sets Nationally!

Its mission to get as many young children involved in the sciences, especially girls, is becoming a reality!

Since the launch of these unique science sets, stores around the country have been stocking their shelves with them in time for the holidays

The Young Scientists Club, creators of a unique series of science kit sets for children ages 4 to 12, today announced that it has received the 2004 Learning Magazine National Teachers Choice Award and the 2003 National Parenting Publications Award.  The company’s carefully designed science kits were chosen from thousands of other children’s products for their unique ability to stimulate and challenge young children as they discover the world of science with their friends and family.  In addition, last month the company launched a line of retail science kit sets at a national level into specialty toy stores and museums stores and has received overwhelming responses to their products.

“These awards are a tremendous validation of the work that has gone into developing our kits,” said Esther Novis, president and founder of The Young Scientists Club.  “We have built a series of science kits that offer children a unique and fun learning experience and that help parents get their children excited about discovering the world of science.”

The Young Scientists Club began four years ago as a subscription science program and now sends thousands of science kits filled with fun experiments monthly to children all over the world.  These same science kits have been packaged into custom-designed sets for retail stores.  This carefully crafted, educational science series covers topics ranging from constructing volcanoes and designing a compass to making a stethoscope and electromagnets.  Each kit ensures that children learn by using different parts of their brains simultaneously during an experiment through reading, writing, and doing simple math calculations.  Children are invited upon completion of the kits to visit a virtual on-line Clubhouse for further exploration of each kit topic.
