Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Illustrated by Frances Zweifel

  • This companion to the popular 365 Simple Science Experiments fills a whole new year with fun, easy and educational hands-on experiments. Kids will learn basic scientific concepts, covering everything from nature, physics, time, chemistry and space.

  • The fundamentals of science are brought to life in an informative and colorful text that children ages seven and up can easily follow by themselves. Simple, clear and safe instructions explain the experiments all of which use everyday materials found in most homes.

  • Projects range from mastering helicopter flight with a pencil and piece of cardboard to building bird-nests, preserving spider webs and constructing a "cigar box" guitar (to understand sound waves).

  • More than 700 lively illustrations give visual aids to help set up the experiments.

    Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

    Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Simple is right, could be better
    I would have given this 2.5 stars if possible. This review applies to all the books in this series, not just this particular one. The book's strengths: (1) Truly simple experiments that make science fun and give it a "Wow" factor for children. Everybody can follow the simple instructions in this book. (2) Seeing science done with ordinary objects takes science out of the elite laboratory and puts it into context of everyday life. (3) Even adults can learn so much about how everyday items ...

    Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great for younger students
    I am a science teacher and I use this book every year for 2nd, 3rd, and even 4th graders. It helps them learn while enjoying what they are learning. This book can even be used to do demonstrations when introducing a topic to older students.



    Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Motor experiment is wrong
    My wife got this book when homeschooling and my daughter picked out the motor experiment. We followed the directions but could not get the motor to work. After looking at the design I realized the armature winding was incorrect. The winding must go around the cork in parallel with the axis, not around the axis. Needless to say a child trying to build this would be extremely frustrated. I have a feeling the author did not build all the experiments. The lack of explanation of how the motor works is ...

    Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Just the right sequence... excellent book
    Just the right sequence to "365 Simple Science Experiments With Everyday Materials". Experiment is slightly more difficult then the mentioned book but much more fun for kids. Sections such as Exploration in Outer Space is outstanding especially with all the buzz around Mars. My daughter won the first prize in Science fair thanks to one of the experiments list in above mentioned book. A must have series if you want to increase you children's interest in Science.



    Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Simplified practical science for kids
    I have got both these books (The first one being 365 Simple Science Experiments with everyday materials) for my kids (aged 8-12) and they find the experiments extremely fun and interesting because they don't need much adult intervention when trying them out , it helped them at school by providing them with a good background of practical science; the kind you encounter everyday but take for granted. It is written for kids, not for adults who then have to explain it to kids. The book covers many scientific ... Read More
