What ingredients should I buy to give to my son with the kit?

Depends a little on age, but the kit comes with nothing, so you should at least have a couple basics on hand: food coloring, salt, white vinegar, vegetable oil, lemon juice, clear liquid soap. You can google "chemistry for x year old" and get some more ideas. A lot has changed... My first chem set had 16 things that could kill you.

Could someone please tell me what experiment #5 is in this kit? Describe the idea please or take a photo. Ours came with two of #3 and none of #5.

What's that smell is the titleYou will need two smaller beakers the larger beaker and the tweezersKey science concept is your sense of smell is one of your five sensesNumber one place one item to smell in each test tube.Number 2. ask a friend to sniff each test tubewithout looking. Can your friend correctly identify each smell?3 repeat this experiment with new smells.4 try pouring a bit of liquid like perfume or vanilla onto a cotton ball. Then, use the tweezers to drop the cotton ball into the test tubes 5 clean the test tubes well before reusing

My daughter is turning 8, is this set to "young" for her?

I see she is now almost 11, but for others contemplating this question. I am sure there is nothing wrong with this kit for the 8 year old, and I'll bet the activities would be perfect for independent exploration (have received my order yet, so no promises) But...I am a science teacher and have taught science lab to grades K-8. My Kinder and grade one kiddos were perfectly capable of using the "regular" labware in class some pieces were even glass. Amazon has some great polypropylene lab ware (some that I ordered with this kit for a science teacher friend's 2 year old) that, along with a book of kitchen chemistry, would be a far better investment that will take your budding scientist into her middle school science fair years and beyond.

Is this suitable for a 7 yr old

My son was three and a half when I got him this. He can't read the suggested experiments and he didn't really understand them. He had fun pouring colored water,ice etc from one container to another. I think for a 7-year old, he/she can definitely do all the suggested experiments and look up other actual experiments.
