Bite-Sized Science: Activities for Children in 15 Minutes or Less

Description

Here's a fun way to get young minds discovering the wonders of the natural world by making predictions, testing them, and then evaluating the results--learning the scientific method. These short, bite-sized, deliciously fun activities like "Sounds of Chewing," "Clinks in the Kitchen," "Tangy Tongue," and "Shoe Show" take only 15 minutes to organize, do, and clean up. Many of the activities involve food, so children will learn and get a snack at the same time.

"The perfect book for busy parents with a desire to help their children enjoy science projects at home." --Barbara Youngblood, Children's Literature
