CAUTION: 
Experiments involving the use of sharp objects (knife, scissors, cutter, pins, etc.), or fire (spirit lamp, candles, matches) or any chemical must strictly done under the supervision of a Teacher or responsible adult. 
Chemistry experiments must be done in a well-ventilated room and Teachers must keep in mind if students in the class have any specific allergy that can be aggravated by fumes, smells, etc.

About MDLS:
ILP's Multi-Dimensional Learning Space (MDLS) is a program that provides learning opportunities to school children to explore, experiment, discover, and learn in multiple ways. The concept of Schools as multi-dimensional learning spaces is based on the foundation that 1) Equal importance should be given to all aspects of the curriculum 2) Learning is not restricted to a curriculum. It should extend to help holistic and balanced development of a child 3) One learning style doesn't work for all and 4) Learning should involve visual, auditory and experiential methods.

About MDLS Science Experiment Kit: 
The Science Experiment Kit is one of the key elements of ILP’s Multi-Dimensional Learning Space (MDLS) program. MDLS has been enabling students to learn Science through hands-on experiments, showing learning Science can be simple, fun, inexpensive and can be done with items you can easily find around you, without many specialized or expensive equipment. The Kit contains material required to do experiments covering around 200+ concepts from 5th to 10th Grade across Physics, Chemistry and Biology.
