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.
