Customer Reviews

Educational Excellence!

This is an awesome book. My kids (4,6,9,11) were not at all interested in science, but once I propped the book up and started with a simple experiment (vinegar and baking soda!) they were intrigued and inspired to want to try other experiments. We've even picked up Volumes 2 and 3. I highly recommend it for all ages.

Backyard Scientist

This is a very user friendly book to encourage a child's love for science. Based on hands on projects, it makes a child not only participate but see science happen before their very own eyes! This is one of the best books for teaching younger children to explore and use their thinking skills. It also uses basic materials that most households have on hand, which is always a plus.
