Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The best thing about this book is that it helps a child to recognize the learning opportunities that exist in everyday objects and situations. Some require small extra purchases or have slightly unusual requirements, but nothing extraordinary.

Each chapter includes a paragraph called the scientific excuse which explains the principles behind the effect you see. Comes with simple instructions for each experiment. Completing several of these experiments in a co-op this year.



Cons

Totally irresponsible science leads one to believe that this book is chock full of daring, potentially dangerous experiments.

    But honestly i would recommend sean connollys other book potentially catastrophic science for grades 4th 8th because that book talks about famous experiments and the famous scientists who did them originally
