During a brief window in 1950-51, children could get the Gilbert U-238 #atomic Energy Lab—a kit allowing them to make nuclear reactions at home using ACTUAL #radioactive MATERIAL.
It was removed from shelves in 1951.
Yeah, that definitely seems incredibly unsafe. I'm sure the amount of radioactive material was minimal but, for example, inhaling a radioactive particle can do horrible things to you over the years.
