This is a book that is filled with science experiments that children with adult supervision can perform and do amazing things with simple household products. When I opened this book and called them in to check it out, they wanted to start doing the experiments right away. We had some that we could do simply.

Such as the experiment called "Ball in a Trap" That was so fun and they liked the ease in which we could make the ball levitate. Again it created so much excitement.

The youngest was six and she was all into the science of it. she asked more questions than I had answers for. This is a treasure trove of fun for kids. When I was provided with this book asked to review a children's book, I did not know we were going to have so much fun. We still have numerous experiments to go.

My granddaughter wants to do the one called Rainbow straw next. I may have a little scientist on my hands. This will be in use every day this summer. The older kids are already picking up the ingredients for the rocket ship.

The science book I wish I would have had.

As a society we have to make science appealing to America's next generation. Hence I commend the efforts of author Jaroslaw Wasilewski and artists Ewa Brzychcy and Paulina Frischke.

Their colorful book which features 30 relatively easy to do experiments is appealing and modern, the illustrations are adorable.

Every experiment has an indicator for the degree of difficulty. The needed ingredients are regular household items: water bottles, balloons, straws, candles, nails, a hairdryer, clothes hangers (the cheap kind), AND mozzarella cheese.

Having lived through the seventies I loved the Volcano lamp. Ghee, if I would have had this book then, I would have build myself one. (Sadly, my dad did not buy me one.) Kids learn to blow up mozzarella cheese; in the process they learn what a polymer is. The cheese will still be edible. I also cannot imagine a kids that isn't fascinated with creating a rainbow straw. Quite fascinating is the idea of the "heartbeat boom box."

Each experiment lists the steps, the scientific explanation, and tips for the "young scientist. " Using this wording - "the young scientist" shows that the author tried to elevate kids' status, make them feel that they are special and that science is special. The book also teaches science vocabulary. Love it!

From the same series:
Children's book of Recipes
Children's book of Magic.
Highly recommended to parents, grandparents, and teachers. - 5 stars

Bright and hip, Children’s Book of Experiments: 30 Incredible Experiments for Young Scientists claims to appeal to budding Einsteins and Curies aged 4 to 9, but the handsome layout, easy-to-follow instructions, and clear scientific explanations should make this book prized by tweens, as well. The fun experiments require few materials, all of which are readily available around the house. Some of these experiments can be performed without adult supervision, although certainly not all.

Whether you’re a mom looking to stimulate your kids’ interest in science or a childless aunt desperate to entertain visiting nieces and nephews on a wet afternoon, this book will serve you well. And, priced at just $3.99 in the Kindle format or free on Kindle Unlimited, what’s not to love?

In the interest of full disclosure, I was given this book by the publisher, Appetite for Education, in return for an honest review.

Great book for this summer

I have three kids, the oldest is seven. They love to do experiments and this book has a bunch that are perfect to do with them. I love that these do not take a lot of materials and most of the items you have at your house already. I like that the book also explains why what happens happens. This is great for summer vacation and I am glad I was asked to review it. There are several more experiments in this book we will be doing this month. The ones we have tried worked well and were easy to do with kids. I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest unbiased review. This has not influenced my opinions on the book. I rated this five stars as a parent of little kids and I feel like these work well for small kids.

Children's Book of Experiments: 30 Incredible Experiments for Young Scientists (Educational series for kids 4-9 years 1)
What I liked first off in this book is that the index shows exactly what you will need to do them by showing the pictures.
Shows you what to mix and even tells you why certain things happen and why.
Good for parents to help with these. Lots of great ideas for things you probably have around your house.
