I've been a part of watching this book grow along the way, and I can't say enough about the fantastic photos, the colors, the design, the layout, but most of all, the delightfully engaging science explorations in "The Curious Kids's Science Book". I think if my kids had had this book when they were little, I would have had a lot more fun with science!! Now I'll use it with my grandkids. It's really a super good book, and so inviting!!

Summary

What happens if you water plants with juice? Where can you find bacteria in your house? Is slug slime as strong as a glue stick? How would your child find the answers to these questions?

In The Curious Kid's Science Book, your child will learn to design his or her own science investigations to determine the answers! Children will learn to ask their own scientific questions, discover value in failed experiments, and — most importantly — have a blast with science. The 100+ hands-on activities in the book use household items to playfully teach important science, technology, engineering, and math skills. Each creative activity includes age-appropriate explanations and (when possible) real life applications of the concepts covered. Adding science to your at-home schedule will make a positive impact on your child's learning. Just one experiment a week will help build children's confidence and excitement about the sciences, boost success in the classroom, and give them the tools to design and execute their own science fair projects.
