Giveaway #716 : Win Beaker Creatures Reactor Pods - closed - winner Susan Shaw


Pierre was delighted this week to discover that we had some Beaker Creatures Reactor Pods to review ... although it turns out that both of his big sisters wanted to get involved in the testing too, so they appeal to older kids as well !


Inside each box, you get one Beaker Creatures Reactor Pod, a little classification card and a mini poster with various scientific facts on the back.


The main event, however, is the Reactor Pods, which look very similar to bath bombs (although they should not be used in the bath as they may stain some surfaces and contact with the eyes or broken skin may cause irritation).


After removing the plastic packaging, we tossed one into a bowl of water and watched it fizz around the bowl before revealing a little plastic container.


We used the same bowl and tossed in the next pod, which fizzed and bubbled as it dissolved.


Pierre got more hands-on when it was his turn and kept touching the pod. He washed his hands afterwards and suffered no adverse effects though.


He thought it was incredibly cool when the little plastic capsule started to appear !


There are 35 different ones to collect in series 1, in "families" of Astrolytes, Frostonians, Oceanites, Buglettes and Minisaurs. If you're lucky, there are also five limited edition 24-carat Creatures, which have a gold colour.


Here are the little creatures that we got - from left to right, Hornfello, Flit, Purtle and Carlmari.

They are ideal as a little pocket money gift or could be given instead of Easter eggs, if you want to cut down on chocolate this year. They have an RRP of £4 but are currently available for £2 from Learning Resources
