Germ Care Kit - A Calm, Care, and Play Kit

from $4.00

This hands-on kit helps kids explore what makes germs thrive—wet mouths, sticky fingers, and dark cozy corners—so they can avoid those situations with confidence, curiosity, and humor. While exploring silly, gross, and wiggly germs, children also learn real science, healthy hygiene habits, and even a few regulation tools to stay calm in icky situations.

Playful and slightly mischievous, this kit invites kids to feed the germs (just for pretend), check out their sparkly snacks, and discover where germs love to hide—then learn what it takes to fight them off with care and knowledge. It’s full of gross-out giggles and smart science.

Inspired by the hilarious books Germs vs. Soap by Didi Dragon illustrated by Hannah Robinett Do Not Lick This Book* by Idan Ben-Barak and Julian Frost. This sensory science adventure combines gross-out giggles with real-world learning. Kids will discover silly germ facts, investigate hidden danger zones (like that unbrushed tongue or chicken nugget under the seat), and learn regulation tools for tricky hygiene moments like brushing teeth.
