From the science of bodies to insects and beyond, science is gross and this book is full of fun ways to learn about it. Explore the layers of your skin and or make a model of intestines to figure out the science of poop. Investigate how germs spread, or the makeup of a virus and why snot helps keep you healthy. When you’ve had enough of anatomy, you can take stock of the creepy critters (dustmites!) in your own bed. Emma Vanstone, author of This Is Rocket Science and Snackable Science Experiments, has 60 new activities to investigate everything icky so you can find out exactly how all the smelliest, stickiest, scariest things work. Whether you want to discover the funny things a body does or the ghastly creatures all around you, there’s always something new to learn. Find out what makes your breath so smelly or why stinky foods taste better when you hold your breath. Do your own easy, exciting dissections with homemade models for a brain or heart. Experiment in your own home by making spooky mirror messages or take a terrifying bath with the Bug Bath Bomb. There’s plenty of cool, revolting activities to help you learn about the world.

What happens if you water plants with juice? Where can you find bacteria in your house? Is slug slime as strong as a glue stick? How would your child find the answers to these questions? In The Curious Kid's Science Book, your child will learn to design his or her own science investigations to determine the answers! Children will learn to ask their own scientific questions, discover value in failed experiments, and — most importantly — have a blast with science. The 100+ hands-on activities in the book use household items to playfully teach important science, technology, engineering, and math skills. Each creative activity includes age-appropriate explanations and (when possible) real life applications of the concepts covered. Adding science to your at-home schedule will make a positive impact on your child's learning. Just one experiment a week will help build children's confidence and excitement about the sciences, boost success in the classroom, and give them the tools to design and execute their own science fair projects.
