User Reviews about The Usborne Big Book of Science Things to Make and Do

Excellent fun things to do with my grandson. His Mom teaches science and she liked it too. -- bigb book of science things to make and do

I ordered this for my 7 year old son and as he and his 4 year old brother looked through the book the first time, they marked the pages they wanted to do and then removed the book marks because every page was marked. It is full of tons of ideas, and they couldn't wait to get started. There are only a few things that you need to purchase - most you will have on hand. Most of the projects are fairly simple which makes them perfect for younger children. This is a fantastice book and I plan to share some of the activities with our cub scout group as well. -- Love this book!

I love the Usborne books! And here they did a great job blending the crafts with science. The kids love to look through it and pick out new things to do. They especially love the wizzards brew which is simple and fun. We are currently working on the wind cars shown on the front. Very fun and uses simple everyday craft items. -- Usborne did it for science too!!!

I bought all the 'ingredients' needed to make any of these projects for my boys to be able to choose whichever they wanted all summer long and they had a ton of fun with all the projects we tried!!! even things we have done before at science museums etc...were made more exciting by say adding glitter to things and we all had a blast for nights after making the airplaines made with card stock and rubber bands w/ pencils to launch! even my 3 year old...we haven't had so much fun as a family or laughed so hard as we all tried to see how far we could launch them! i bought this book to get ideas for a science night at school and there are lots of great and inexpensive ideas in this book...and the graphics are fun to look at too! def. would recommend as we will be using this for years to come i'm sure as my oldest is 8!!! -- GREAT book for the whole family!!!
