The Big Bang Book of Science Experiments For Children

Young minds already find science fun, especially the experiments, as well as the thrill in discovering how things work and why things are as they are. This book contains over thirty exciting science experiments which are designed to engage and expand a child’s interest in the subject. Using simple everyday items found in your home, you and your aspiring young scientist will discover about air pressure, chemical reactions, how to make a rain cloud in a lemonade bottle and much, much more. All the experiments are designed to be carried out in the home, by children from the ages of six to twelve years old. Imagine the world opening up for your child, as he or she discovers that a simple balloon can bend water without touching it. How they can amaze their friends by making a Ping-Pong ball float in mid-air, or even how they defy all logic as they drop an egg and watch it bounce like a ball. Many of the world’s most well-known scientists had their interest in science sparked at a young age and went on to make world shattering discoveries. In many cases they did not get their inspiration from schools but at home from their parents or older siblings. With that in mind, whilst most of the experiments in this book can be done by children without adult supervision, it is recommended that parents actively work with their children through this it. There is nothing more exciting for a child then sharing discoveries with their dad or mum. The book has both in-depth and quickie experiments, so it can be used if you and your little one have a few hours to spare at a time or just ten minutes or so. In that way this book can become an educational aid to any home where there are inquisitive children who long to seek out knowledge in a fun and exciting way.
