The Best Test Tube for Kids!
Durable, water-tight, and perfect for kids!
It’s no wonder you can find Baby Soda Bottles in classrooms around the world. Unlike ordinary, breakable glass test tubes, you’ll rarely find yourself replacing these thick-walled plastic test tubes. Baby Soda Bottles can be dropped, stepped-on, or thrown… they just won’t break! Pop them in the dishwasher for easy cleaning. Recommended for children ages 3 and up.
Why are they called Baby Soda Bottles?
Their home is actually in the bottling industry! At the bottling plant, the tubes are placed into a vacuum mold and heated so they soften. Hot air is then blown into the tube, stretching the warmed plastic to 40 times its original size to become a 2-liter soda bottle. When, the plastic cools into the shape of the mold, the bottle is ready to fill with a refreshing drink.
What does it teach?
Baby Soda Bottles will instantly become a staple of your classroom or household, no matter what your scientists’ ages. The thick plastic material is nearly unbreakable and makes the perfect closable container for all kinds of materials and hands-on science experiments.
Baby Soda Bottles Can Be Used to Teach Kids More Things Than You Can Imagine!
Grow plants, observe critters, collect water samples, explore different densities, hydrate polymer crystals, and mix all the colors you can find in a rainbow. The only limit on the possibilities for Baby Soda Bottles is your imagination and creativity!
Are They Indestructible?
For the most part. We put some baby soda bottles through very rigorous testing including dishwashing, dropping, and stomping on, and they were unharmed. They survived every test that we put them through until Drew treated one as a baseball and threw his 90 mph fastball at a brick wall, in which the bottle did not survive. Also, they are not flame proof and will melt under extreme heat.
They are Leak-Proof!
In addition to being some of the sturdiest test tubes ever, Baby Soda Bottles are leak-proof. Baby Soda Bottles feature caps that easily twist on and off, making the test tubes shakeable and unbreakable, even with liquids inside!

My students have used these for a variety of projects.*We have watched roots grow, *Made wave bottles with colored water and baby oil(it stays clear and is safer than lamp oil and smells better too)., and*Watched as white flowers turned whatever color we decided to put in the tube.My students can’t get enough of them and are always asking for tube experiments. They’re even great for Halloween parties. Everyone wants to be a mad scientist!

I have used these for years now as holders for small items. My wife found her sewing machine bobbins fit neatly in the tube.

These racks work well with a group of six students for science experiments. However, the insert ends of the blue plastic guides are very thin and will snap off when disassembled.

We have used the science baby soda bottles for a lot of fun activities. We used them recently for our Juniors in highschool to make time calpsules and they wrote letters to themselves which they can open at the end of the senior highschool year. They can be decorated with permanent sharpie markers and curly ribbon.
We also used them for MOPS- Mothers of Preschoolers

I bought these for my sons 7th birthday party which was a science theme party. The kids made lava lamps with them and it was such a big hit. The party was great and the kids thought it was so great that they got to take them home with them.

We ordered these for my daughter’s birthday as part of a CSI Themed party. They are great! Size is fun and we were able to not only use them for the experiment, but we could also fill them with candy to place in their favor boxes. Kids loved them! I included some experiment instructions in each favor box, so they could take them home and enjoy them!
