Interesting experiments

This is a book that parents and kids alike will enjoy. The experiments are engaging, fun, and simple. I have borrowed this book from the library many times. That is the reason I bought this book to begin with. Rather than have to search for it at the library, I just have to search my house for it.

All thumbs up!

We checked this out in the library where it is a reference book. It is that useful and educational!! My son HAD to have it to make the drawer lock for his desk to keep his younger brother out. Don't tell him he might actually learn something too. Lots of basic experiments/ how-to's, and info about Edison. Great book.
