The sunlight paper is great, and makes a wonderful classroom demonstration. If you do not have sunlight (as in New England) then just use an old overhead projector, exposing the paper for about five minutes or more. The kit is not very useful, and the book tells you less than what you can find online. Instead, just order the refill.

This is a wonderful product. It introduces kids to all the main principles of wet photography without the need for camera, darkroom or chemicals. It is also fascinating to observe the image appear in front of your eyes. The booklet is very informative and the templates for contact printing look nice. The kit offers an infinite number of creative projects one can do, and the resulting sunprints are permanent. I highly recommend it!
Good buy!

This package made the process fun. The book was worth the extra money if you are interested in the history of this process and also it gives many ideas for other projects! I'm a professor so I liked this choice for those reasons. You can work without glass or plastic but a sheet of glass to press down objects like flowers is really good to have!
