Each learning theme in Do and Discover Science highlights how science can be part of young children’s everyday experiences. The lessons bring important science concepts down to a simple format that is easy for children to comprehend, yet challenges them to use higher-thought processes. Even though children may not think about science skills while asking questions, communicating their ideas, and exploring, predicting, and observing how things act in certain situations, they are learning how to use these important skills. These first science experiences not only encourage children to continue exploring how the world works, but promote more complex language development as young children acquire new vocabulary and share their ideas.
