Love this Book

This lively, exciting book responds to the growing emphasis on scientific exploration for young children. Its appealing activities are cleverly designed to help children investigate the fascinating scientific fields of electricity, the weather and their own bodies. Readers can find out how their voices work, how to make a flashing lighthouse and how to use wind power. All the activities are safe and easy to carry out, using ordinary household things and easily available equipment. The text and illustrations are simple and clear, so children can carry out the experiments themselves and understand the results. Extra notes give more detailed scientific explanations for adults who wish to work with their children.
