Dr Zigs’ brand new Bubble Pollinator Kit is designed to combine play and learning, made to teach children about the science and importance of pollination, whilst having fun with Bubbles.
This kit comes with an educational booklet, introducing the idea of pollination, why it is important in nature, and what kinds of animals naturally act as pollinators.
This kit allows children to help our native pollinators with their task but using Bubbles as a medium for delivering pollen to a flower.
What it contains: 100ml of our plant-based Bubble Mix in a flat bottle made from 100% recycled plastic. The Bubble Mix is plant and bee-friendly, vegan, phosphate-free, and biodegradable in sunlight, so completely safe to use, and friendly for the planet. Also included is a straw and cup made from 100% sustainably sourced bamboo, a paintbrush to collect pollen, and an instruction booklet.
