Synopsis

Image an entire year full of clever, fun, and educational science experiments!

365 More Simple Science Experiments with Everyday Materials brings you and your family a fully-illustrated handbook that is "perfect for formal instructional settings or entertaining curious minds with scientific fundamentals" (Booklist).

Whether it's for a quick science fair project or an impromptu rainy-day activity with friends, this book is written for kids ages 9 through 12, with DIY environmentally friendly ideas that teach concepts such as gravity, electricity, magnification, magnetism, oxidation, and so much more.

Everyday materials like soap, paper, water, and common food items like lemons and potatoes are transformed into keys to the world of wonder that is science. Learn basic physics with a bottle and a coin; explore biochemistry and nutrition with cooking (and eating!); design a rocket; learn about time, timekeeping and develop new record-keeping skills ideal for the budding scientists and writers.

Packed with more than 1,000 illustrations and step-by-step instructions, 365 More Simple Science Experiments with Everyday Materials brings core concepts into focus with a fun, family-friendly approach.
