Quick, simple, easy-to-do experiments for young scientists..

The simplicity of the text, pictures, materials used, and the experiments themselves struck me as being ideal for young children. Kids trying these experiments will find themselves having too much fun to even think they are learning. Adult lab assistants will enjoy the ease of preparation and the use of common, inexpen sive materials used. Most activities can be done in a short time and are perfect "fillers". Others require some patience and daily observation. The authors explain and encourage the use of journals to record what is happening---just like a real scientist or researcher would do. The step-by- step pictures make the pages even more interesting and informative and the concept simpler to under- stand for non-readers. This would be an excellent book to introduce the sciences and to teach across several skill areas (reading, writing, predicting outcomes, observation, sequencing).
