Learning Resources introduced Beaker Creatures to encourage kids to participate in their own science adventures. Infusing science with collectible toys, Beaker Creatures encourages children to unleash the scientist within them. The set includes a magnification chamber, bio-homes, a reactor superlab and pods. The concept of the playset is to extract the creatures, identify them and explore more about the small creatures.
Interacting with the kit starts with the pods, where they meet water and begin to bubble up to reveal a character to extract and identify using the classification cards. The bio-homes offer a place to house the different creatures that can be collected over time. There are also five limited-edition 24-carat creatures to be discovered.
