Insta-Worm Kit
Item #: WORM-700 In Stock

Squeeze a long stream of Worm Goo into the Activator Solution and you'll get Instant Worms! You won't believe your eyes as the honey-like "Worm Goo" changes into a rubbery solid the second the two solutions mix. This unique polymer formulation (no Borax or PVA used here) is safe to touch and weave between your fingers. The "hands-on science" factor is great for younger students while the strong content makes the activity perfect for upper-level students and teachers. If you love the classic "slime" activity, Insta-Worms™ is guaranteed to knock your socks off! Ages 6 and up.

You get enough materials to make about 12 meters (40 ft) of Worms!

What's included?

  • 60 mL of Worm Goo
  • 1 Packet of Worm Activator
  • Teacher-created activity guide

What does it teach?

Explore the science of building polymers by cross-linking long chains of molecules. The process of making Instant Worms is faster and easier than the classic Slime recipe and it happens the very second the two liquids mix. Truly amazing!

Saving Worms Lives!

My son and I used this kit the other day after playing in the garden. He loved finding worms in the dirt. Problem was he'd "love" on the worms a little too much - if you know what I mean. That's when I remembered that I bought this kit. We ran inside, put on our special science clothes and had fun making worms for the rest of the day. I wish I had had the video camera close by so you could hear his excitement pulling the worms out of the special solution. What a fun & unique kit!
