Science has never been so HORRIBLE

We have launched Really Rotten Experiments, a new science kit for our Horrible Science range. Based on the bestselling books by Nick Arnold, this Horrible Science kit is all about discovery, in loads of horribly fantastic ways.

Like all Horrible Science kits, Really Rotten Experiments is science with the squishy stuff left in. The kit allows children to try their hand at weird and wonderful experiments, discovering the nasty bits about the human body while learning without noticing.

Suitable for children aged ten and above, Really Rotten Experiments contains ten fiendishly foul experiments children will love. Children will be able to play pranks on their family and friends by hiding a cockroach in soap, moulding fake poo or even making vile vomit and ghastly green slime.

We are massive fans of the Horrible History and Science collection, so as you can imagine we’re delighted for this kit to be added to our ever growing range.

The science kits really do make learning fun, and science is always going to be at the heart of the school curriculum so it merits the most effective and imaginative teaching techniques – making the Horrible Science range perfect.

Make sure you check out the rest of our Horrible Science range which is packed full of stomach-churning experiments and extremely explosive stuff!

 

 

 

Counting with the Pirates

Galt Toys has launched a new board game called Pirate Pursuit, which teaches young children to count in a fun and engaging way.  Players race around the Treasure Island in a bid to be the first to fill their loot bag with the correct number of gold coins whilst avoiding losing their loot to pirates.

Suitable from 3 to 7 years, Pirate Pursuit is an ideal developmental game and is the latest addition to the new range of board games launched by Galt Toys this year. The game is designed around addition and subtraction, as players collect or lose their gold coins in the attempt to reach the target number of six coins in the loot bag. Children will love the exciting pirate theme which comes complete with a wind-up galleon, skull and crossbone traps, 24 gold playing coins and loot bags. The board itself is a caricature treasure island map and added adventure is introduced by the pirate galleon – the wind-up ship that mechanically sails round the board in pursuit of the players to try and reclaim some of its treasure.

John McDonnell, Managing Director at Galt Toys, comments: “Board games are a staple of childhood, and treasured in households up and down the country. Pirate Pursuit is the latest from our range of seven new board games that help teach important developmental skills such as counting, memory and colour recognition. As well as having an educational purpose, all board games help aid social skills, such as communication, sharing, turn taking and the ability to focus attention. Games are a great way for families to spend time together and we know everyone will find Pirate Pursuit a lot of fun.”

Pirate Pursuit retails at £15.99 and is Galleons of fun!
