More than sixty simple physics experiments that can safely be done with materials around the house.

Uses activities and projects to introduce how electricity and magnets work at home and in the everyday world.

Presents a variety of activities, projects, and experiments that help to illustrate and explain all sorts of scientific principles.

There's no need for expensive, high-tech lab equipment to conduct chemistry experiments -- you probably have all you need in your home junk drawer. Turn three pennies and two galvanized washers into a simple battery. Crush a soda can using atmospheric pressure. Convert an LED flashlight into a simple electrolyte tester. Split liquid water into two unique gasses, or use cornstarch to create a gooey, mysterious, non-Newtonian fluid. And model radioactive...

Presents science experiments involving water, magnets, and light and mirrors, with easy-to-follow instructions and scientific explanations for each experiment.

"Make actual working models, conduct your own experiments, research key educational topics, improve your class work."

Includes instructions for and explanations of experiments that introduce such topics as elasticity, tessellation, fibers, and bridges.

Contains fun science fair projects that encourage learning and could win you a blue ribbon.
