This book contains 25 science experiments that range from supper simple like dancing raisins to more complex like edible snot。 It will appeal to the budding scientist in every middle grade student。 The book has an attractive layout， with standard symbols that help children pick activities that they can do by themselves or those that need adult supervision。 There is a lot of dry ice！ Each experiment comes with questions to think about and answer as well as a middle grade science explanation of th This book contains 25 science experiments that range from supper simple like dancing raisins to more complex like edible snot。 It will appeal to the budding scientist in every middle grade student。 The book has an attractive layout， with standard symbols that help children pick activities that they can do by themselves or those that need adult supervision。 There is a lot of dry ice！ Each experiment comes with questions to think about and answer as well as a middle grade science explanation of the science behind the experiments。 I would recommend this book for purchase by any school or public library。This book was provided by the publisher for professional review by SWON Libraries。 。。。more

This book is a gem！ Packed with 25 different experiments， I was excited to thumb my way through this beauty。 I have to warn you up front， that I am not into science。 I hated science as a child， as I didn’t understand any of it but now as an adult， I love experimenting and learning from it。 This book fits right in with my needs。If only as I child， I could have experimented with fun and interesting items instead of the beakers， test tubes and chemicals that we had to use， I think that I would have This book is a gem！ Packed with 25 different experiments， I was excited to thumb my way through this beauty。 I have to warn you up front， that I am not into science。 I hated science as a child， as I didn’t understand any of it but now as an adult， I love experimenting and learning from it。 This book fits right in with my needs。If only as I child， I could have experimented with fun and interesting items instead of the beakers， test tubes and chemicals that we had to use， I think that I would have learned more and enjoyed science。 In The Big Book of Experiments， the variety of experiments is great。 Some of the experiments can be completed rather quickly and some can take some time while there are some which small children can complete with little assistance while others， you’ll need an adult or mature person watching over the whole experiment。 I liked that some of these ideas were ones that I had already completed and some were new to me。 There was Dancing Raisins， Elephant’s Toothpaste， Moon Rocks， Unicorn Glue， Lava Lamp， Neon Brains， and Fake Tattoos， just to mention a few。 I do like redoing experimentsKate provides visual safety cues to each experiment。 Whether that is a sink， goggles， gloves， a garbage can or adults， as these safety cues remind the reader to be safe when conducting the experiments。 Along with the cues， each experiment has a small note about the experiment， a list of supplies， a messiness level， step-by-step directions with colorful illustrations， questions to ask yourself after you’re finished （science questions about what happened and what if questions） and then， the author explains to you the WHY， as to why the experiment worked。 Now， that is some important stuff！ This is the educational element of the book and important for you to read， you do want to become smarter， don’t you？I liked that most of the supplies for these experiments were normal items that aren’t hard to find。 Items like rubber bands， knife， dish soap， hydrogen peroxide， shaving cream， balloons， fishing line， etc。 There are some that called for some more difficult items， like sodium alginate， calcium chloride， iron oxide powder， dry ice， and copper wire， for which you will have to do some planning to get these before having some fun。 I would have liked an idea where someone could locate some of these items， that would have been a big help。 Some type of indexing at the back would have been great too。 There is a Table of Content but I like indexes in books like these。 It’s a great colorful， fun book and I highly recommend it。 If you’re homeschooling or trying to keep your child engaged， this is a great book to check out。 4。5 stars 。。。more
