Product Description
Combining classic children's literature with fun kitchen science experiments, this handbook is an ideal resource for parents or teachers who want to instill a cross-curricular approach to educating their children. A wide range of experiments are featured, including how to make the green goo found in Dr. Seuss' Bartholomew and the Oobleck as well as making pasta dance as shown in Tomie dePaola's Strega Nona. Each chapter contains a detailed summary of the story, step-by-step instructions with a list of ingredients, thought-provoking questions for children, science facts, how to relate the experiment to every day life, and sources for further exploration. The activities, which are appropriate for children ages 4 to 11, result in a terrific way to combine reading with turning a kitchen into an exciting laboratory of learning.

As a parent of two kids, Ms. Williams' book makes science concepts easy to understand through simple and clever experiments. Materials are simply obtained from the store with great explainations of how and why the science experiments work. You don't have to be parent scientist or a whiz kid to enjoy this book. It will provide hours of fun, curiosity, excitment, provide for a great understanding of science concepts, and most important, quality time spent with your kids. A must read....A must have to keep for yourself to share with your kids.
