There are opportunities for readers to learn through so many easy projects. Our favorite bookmarked pages include "lab #48 - Glamorous Goo" where we will be making magnetic smile with simple materials like white school glue, liquid starch, water, and the most unconventional item being the iron oxide, ferrous oxide or magnetic sand that is needed. The steps are written out with photos, along with information about the science behind the fun project.
There are a few projects inside that use food in the experiments, but with 52 projects there are enough to go through even with skipping those. My daughter has been collecting rocks everywhere we go, this book shows us how to identify the most common rocks and minerals which makes her collections so much more fun.
Some of the questions answered in this book include:
How do crystals form?
How are insects trapped and preserved in amber?
How does water shapes mountains, valleys, and canyons?
How does a volcano form and erupt?
How a geyser uses heat beneath the earth's surface and more!
