Engaging experiments using simple toys and everyday stuff teach curious young minds all about Earth Science and weather. Readers can take an up-close look at how tornadoes develop, why wind is sometimes cold, how the water cycle works, and so much more. With low-level text and step-by-step photos, connecting young readers with science concepts has never been simpler!
Relying on common household objects such as washcloths, soda bottles, tape, and water, readers will have the chance to see how clouds and twisters form as well as learning more about the water cycle and how electricity forms naturally from contact with various objects. The book contains easy-to-follow directions, and then there is a section at the back of the book that provides scientific explanations for what happened each time. This book might be useful to a teacher or parent looking to kindle interest in science on the part of his/her young charges.
