Description
A fun and colorful introduction to basic chemistry, this book has cartoons and loads of illustrations among the readable text. The projects require only common household items: clear jars, coffee filters, a science journal, colored pencils, a magnet, etc. Kids learn to document what they observe, and grow their science vocabulary. Projects include: make a model helium atom, researching an element of your choice, finding the colors in black ink, charting chemicals you find around the house (reading labels with parental guidance), freezing and melting water, etc. 8"x 10", 83 pgs, hc. ~ Sara
