5 out of 5 starsNot that simple, 2008-11-03
The book is great and I'm glad I bought it, though, if your child is under 4 or even 5 you might need to wait before you can actually enjoy this book.

4 out of 5 starsLove it for its simple but clever ideas!, 2008-09-16
The ideas presented for exploration in this book are simple and accessible to even a non-science minded person. I especially like the children's book suggestions pertaining to the topic - it gives me some resources for further "research" with the kids. Unlike many curricula-type books it is not particulary designed for multi-child experience... so for me and my 2 kids it is very easy to use with little adaptation for homeschool work.

5 out of 5 starsA Must Have, 2008-08-24
This book is a must have for teachers/parents of young children. It is written in an excellent format and has great experiments. I conduct numerous hands on science experiments with my class of four year olds and turn to this book more than any others I have. The parent info. page for each section is an added bonus. Wish I had written it.
