The Everything Kids' Easy Science Experiments Book

Why is the sky blue? What makes a balloon float? Why can't I see in the dark?

You can discover the answers to these questions and more with this book. Using easy-to-find household materials like soda bottles and flashlights, you can build bubbles, create plastic--even make raisins dance! All of the experiments are kid-tested and educational--but more importantly, they're tons of fun! These quick and easy experiments help you to:

• Explore your five senses
• Discover density and sound
• Delve into seasons, life cycles, and weather
• Investigate electricity and light
• Study the solar system and landforms
• Examine matter and acids/bases

This is the perfect book for a rainy Saturday, a lazy vacation day, or even after school. You'll have so much fun conducting the experiments, you'll forget that you're actually learning about science!
