I Can Experiment: Fun-to-Do Simple Science Projects for Young Children (Show Me How)

I Can Experiment combines learning and play in 16 simple step-by-step projects: a basic series of enjoyable and stimulating lessons in a fun format that is both tempting and highly accessible for children aged between 6 and 10 years. The ideas and experiments in this book include: exploring the way that light travels in straight lines by making shadow puppets; how a mirror works; finding out about color with magic markers; investigating sound by making a string telephone; melting ice cubes to learn about temperature; and seeing how the wind moves a homemade sailboat. The specially taken stage-by-stage photographs feature children actually making and doing, so that young readers can identify with them, copy their movements, share their successes, delight in their results, and learn alongside them.
