Dream to Change the World was the first in this series of new publications, with Jump Up! A Story of Carnival being the second.

However, we had a couple of the boxes around still, mixed in with other science boxes, and so Kai and I decided to open one up during a recent long weekend. This one, box five for us, was the no-nonsense named Color-Mixing LED Crystal kit.
