About Thames & Kosmos:
Thames & Kosmos was founded in 2001 with the mission of improving informal science education outside of the classroom by publishing high-quality science kits for children of all ages. T&K’s mission has since expanded from its stem roots to encompass other educational branches as well, including arts and crafts and the panoply of thinking and social skills that can be taught through games and magic.
T&K places an emphasis on teaching concepts and skills through tactile processes. Our vision is to give all children access to real, physical activities and projects that teach them how things work.

The Gummy CandiesAfter you’ve made your yummy gummy shapes, you can wrap them in a plastic bag and label it with fun stickers that are included in the kit! Your scientific creation is a great sweet and sour treat for your friends and family! | The ExperimentsAside from an experiment to guide you in making your gummy candies, additional experiments explore different chemistry concepts. Can you remove the color from your gummies? What happens when you melt one of your gummy shapes and then freeze it? The experiments in the kit explore the how’s and why’s in detail. | The ManualKids are introduced to scientific terms and processes in the ‘Geek Out!’ sections of the manual. Things like phases of matter and how to detect acids and bases are described in easy-to-understand language and accompanied by clear illustrations, photographs, and real-life applications to make these concepts more tangible. |
