Mr.Scientific. That’s the name given to my son, by his classmates, this year.
He’s in grade 2.
If you have a little scientist on your hands too, I’ve got the perfect book to share with you for the holidays!
This new book, with more than 100 experiments provided by Mad Science and step-by-step instructions, shows kids how simple experiments can help them better understand the world around them. Big Book of Science Experiments goes on sale on December 6, 2011 and will be available at www.timeforkids.com/science and retailers nationwide.
The 192-page, full-color hardcover book presents fresh and fascinating experiments for kids 8 to 12 to wrap their heads (and hands) around. The inquiry-based experiments cover aspects of physical, life and earth science, and dovetail with the school science curriculum. Designed to appeal to the most curious children, Big Book of Science Experiments has a generous focus on kid-friendly themes such as explosions (safe ones!), the environment, and the human body.
The intriguing experiments in Big Book of Science Experiments were created by the experts at Mad Science, the world’s leading science enrichment provider. Each experiment features clear and colorful step-by-step directions, helping children to easily follow the procedure and tips on how each experiment could be used in a science fair.
“Following the success of Super Science Book, we created Big Book of Science Experiments to offer kids a supplement to everything they love about science. Annual science fairs continue to grow in popularity. This book provides a myriad of ideas to bring science directly to your home,” said Bob Der, Editorial Director, TIME For Kids. “We filled the book with incredibly cool experiments for kids to explore in a fun, family-friendly way.”
