Is there information included that would teach kids about the chemistry of the nutrients?

Dear Paige --There is an information/instruction booklet for the terrarium that contains information as to what nutrients are present, etc. --Jeff S. | Hearth Song Customer Service

Yes, there is information about nutrient packs A and B included in the kit. It lists what is present and in what percent, as well as what those nutrients are derived from.

There is a instruction "booklet" that has a Nutrient Information section which has 2 parts. There are 2 nutrients that the unit uses. The nutrient sections show what the percentage such as Nitrogen 4.50% and Copper 84mg/kg and so on. The hydro-dome items are rated for ages 12 and older. I don't know if this answered you question or not. Kathy

Iron deficiencies are important to treat, but children can also overdose on iron. Iron overdose is serious http://www.emedicinehealth.com/iron_poisoning/article_em.htm and can lead to death http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/00019593.html. These look and taste like candy, so it's a GOOD thing iron isn't in them. Plus, some parents think "more is better" or leave these sitting in reach so they don't forget to take them...but risk a child surprising them by getting the cap off. Many vitamin manufacturers have removed iron as a result. Talk to your pediatrician for a blood test (just a finger poke) BEFORE giving a child iron supplements and consider iron-rich foods as a safer alternative. More is NOT always better and what we take as grown-ups does not always translate for kids. Our kiddo was low in iron one test, but a slight focus on her diet and voila', normal. I don't see iron as an ingredient and that's a GOOD thing. Ways to increase iron without candy/vitamin supplements....http://health.usnews.com/health-news/blogs/on-parenting/2010/10/06/5-kid-friendly-foods-with-iron

It would certainly be more convenient to have the nutritional facts/ingredients panel on the same page as the product being sold. However, Megafood's website (www.megafood.com) is very easy to navigate, and their customer service agent was prompt and very helpful in answering the questions I had.

I would look on the Ancient Minerals website. Mark Sircus wrote a book about magnesium deficiency and just about everyone is deficient because of the American diet, but I would still recommend knowing why you are using it on your child. If a child is taking vitamins look at the magnesium amounts in the vitamins. Its good for tissues like tendons, ligaments, muscles and skin, but unless a child has a condition that's being treated by a doctor, they may not really need it. Still, the website and Dr. Sircus's books are chock full of great information, so I'd suggest you go there first.

I am not really sure? But if you do a net search for it you will find some interesting info on it. From what I understand it has some form of sugar added to it, to help it mix with water.

The hobbyist bundle only has 8 nutrients. That doesn't include your 3 primary macronutrients. These are basically your micronutrients of which there are a lot of. That is why the larger bundles such as the grandmaster have so many bottles. Advanced nutrients makes a good product line, but there aren't too many differences in brands.

I recently called Garden of Life to inquire about their kids vitamin and one of the things they told me was that the iron listed on the label was naturally occuring in the foods used in creating this vitamin. I also learned that this is the only certified non-GMO childrens vitamin formula on the market which is important to me for the health of my children.
