5.0 out of 5 stars This book is the biggest help to families!, 22 Feb 2001
By A Customer
My children have enjoyed this book every year when looking for their science experiments. It is so much fun and really triggers their interest in science. It's a must for all those families struggling for ideas for the science fair. Sincerely, E. Barthel St. Louis, MO

4.0 out of 5 stars Usborne book of experiments, 13 Feb 2009
I bought this book for my 5 year old, however, it is too advanced for this age group (I think it would create more questions than answers at this stage!)so I've decided to hold on to it for a future birthday present. The book looks good though although I haven't tried doing any of the experiments yet.
