101 Science Activities for Emerging Einsteins

"How does it work? Why does it do that? What will happen if . . .?" Questions curious kids ask about everyday things from breathing to popcorn! Tracey Schofield's answer to these questions is a book filled with simple, fun science experiments and activities to help kids discover for themselves how the world works. They'll make discoveries about their own bodies, weather, recycling, carbonated drinks, washing dishes, spit-you name it, this book covers it! The author's philosophy, "if it's fun, kids will do it," results in a book chock-full of valid science experiments that are so much fun, kids may not even realize how much they're learning.

Activities are arranged logically with clear directions, challenging questions and fun-to-learn science facts in child-sized bites.
