Awesome Book with Tons of Practical Experiments
This book is awesome! It’s thick with tons of experiments! The resources needed seem super accessible and the projects are short enough and simple enough to be super fun and exciting without being tedious or requiring a ton of extra prep. My son are very excited when we do an experiment. Someone pointed out the explanations are a little advanced for younger kids, which is true, but they definitely do a great job of at least explaining how and why the experiment worked. And it’s easy enough to leave out the more minute details for younger kids or translate them into easier to understand terms.Update: This book works best, in my opinion, if you make a little materials kit. I went through a good portion of the book and made a list of the materials that are on the cheaper side and would work for a good amount of the experiments. Along with basic kitchen essentials, like measuring spoons and cups, here’s the list I made for myself:Corn starchFood coloringcheap Vegetable oilBalloonsPaper strawsPlastic bendy strawsPing pong ballsPom pomsZiploc bagsWooden craft sticksEpsom saltPaper cupsBaking sodaVinegarAlka Seltzer (more expensive, but needed for some of the more exciting ones!)saved Toilet paper rollsI personally haven’t bought every single thing on this list and there are still a ton of experiments we’re able to do in this book!

Homeschool Science Win!
Such fun experiments using mostly household products we already have on hand. Or can be purchased for very cheap! I love how the experiments are organized by subject too. Overall a great book for any kid!

Have Fun Teaching Your Kids (and you) Why and How Things Work
This is an amazing book! Great alternative for iPads and TV for the summer. I think the age range is around 4-11 yrs …possibly even 12 year olds will love these experiments. They are easy enough for an older brother to do with a younger brother, a babysitter, or hopefully Mom or Dad…. As my 11 year old grandson said, can I do some of these on my own? Definitely!I expected an old small book with dull experiments. I took a chance on it cause my grandkids are always looking for fun games and things todo. I am always looking for ways for them to learn through doing. (Being an ex Teacher)This book has different sections of experiments explaining things – why something works or reacts in the way it does – in a scientific way. There are 5 Sections to the book. They are in Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math. There are 16-30 or more experiments in each section. An example is in the picture below from the beginner science section. Titled : “DOES IT RUST?”Pleasantly surprised with a nice thick attractive book with many illustrations. Definitely recommend this and it was a good price. Most of the experimental items you will have already in your home already.

This is the first time I received a book that was squeezed and bent to fit a smaller box. Cannot be a gift, can only keep for own use as book is slightly damaged and looked worn out. Disappointed.Yet to browse the content

Experimentos sencillos para niños!, se pueden realizar con seguridad

Well explained, easy to follow. Every experiment is broken down into difficulty, duration, detailed steps + material and of course the explanation (how and why). Some of the projects are more age dependent than others. So maybe check ahead of time which one fits your needs and your child’s. Would highly recommend it.

Awesome, simple ideas for kids to explore. I really like that the author also explains the science behind all the activity in a simple manner.
