Wow, is this a great book! Just from a visual perspective, you’ll agree. The photographs are stunning, the oversized, glossy pages are enticing, and the experiments look doable.
My kids and I tried Color Changing Milk first. And second. And third. Okay, and fourth.
(They kind of loved it.)
See what happened:
Beautiful. EASY. Fun.
Then, we tried Floating Water.
It worked!? Cool.
Other experiments include:
- Bubbling Lava Bottle
- The Incredible Can Crusher
- Nails for Breakfast
- The Folding Egg
- Quicksand Goo
- Screaming Balloon
- Burning Money
- Trash Can Smoke Rings
- Glacier Gak
- Flying Toilet Paper
and many, many more!
= 29 experiments, 248 color photographs, and 1 giveaway to a lucky reader! And, if you don’t win, this would be a GREAT gift for a child. (It’s got everything — the word naked, science experiments, and lots of messiness.)
If you’re in Colorado, don’t miss Steve at the Tattered Cover on September 16!
