A handy-sized paperback book with 50 fun, step-by-step experiments and activities for young scientists. Activities include creating a light and shadow show, separating colours in a fascinating ink experiment, creating a foaming monster using chemical reactions and lots more! Each page displays step-by-step instructions for how to complete the activity as well as a simple explanation of the science behind it. An excellent book to introduce children to scientific concepts in a fun and interactive way.

50 science experiments explained so simply and clearly that children (and even adult helpers) can run them all by themselves.
