Kids chemistry sets-if they even still sell them-stopped carrying all the “good” chemicals a long time ago. My set from 60 years ago had some pretty dangerous chemicals in it. Don’t know when they changed but when trying to find one for my sons 10 birthday 30 years ago, could not be found

My friend Danny was bringing Potassium perchlorate to school and having fun with it.. Lots of laughs, but when the music teacher’s large lecture book went up in smoke and Danny leaned back laughing , and his shirt did too. the game was up…..Great laughs in the seventh grade…..
