four-stars

Clear directions and colorful photographs describe how to create a variety of experiments. Some would qualify more as examples of scientific principles than movement. Nevertheless, they all require common materials and kids should be able to complete them without adult assistance. I’m not sure the “unplugged” gimmick will entice many kids but making air cannons might. The “Science Takeaway” for each experiment is written clearly and resulted in my giving the book 4 stars rather than 3.
