Children will enjoy this entertaining book, which uses the principles of Makerspace to introduce them to the properties of matter. Simple text describes the properties of liquids and solids, and how these properties change between states of matter. Readers are then provided with strategies to start their own creative projects using the scientific ideas they have learned. Along the way, tips and helpful hints guide children on how to brainstorm and solve problems working as a team. "About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.

In Electricity and Magnetism, children will unravel the secrets of science with simple experiments using easy-to-find ingredients. In this title in the Let's Experiment! series, children are accompanied by two characters: Professor Albert, who will teach them the scientific explanation behind each experiment; and Greg the Robot, who will guide them in their practice. They'll have a ton of fun learning how magnetic force works, how to make and use a compass, build a circuit, and much more! For each experiment, there is also a "mess-o-meter" for parents to know how messy the experiment can be, as well as the level of difficulty.

Given the pace of how we harness and utilize electricity, as well as the importance of developing new sources of energy, electricity is a timely subject for kids to explore. InExplore Electricity! With 25 Great Projects, kids ages 6-9 will learn the basics of electricity: currents, circuits, power, magnetism and electromagnetism, motors and generators. They'll become more attuned to how much they rely on electricity in their daily lives. They'll also understand that while electricity is a wonderful resource, and one we've used to our advantage ever since it was discovered, the future of how we make and use electricity is still changing and there are things they can do today to impact these changes. This title invites kids to experiment on their own with 25 simple projects that will 'spark' their learning and enthusiasm, including making their own clothespin switch, lemon battery, compass, electromagnet, and flashlight, as well as generating their own 'lightning.' These hands-on activities combined with informational text will excite kids about STEM? the interrelated fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.
