Janice VanCleave's Wild, Wacky, and Weird Science Experiments: Sets 1 ? 2

The renowned science educator Janice VanCleave returns with a new series of wild, wacky, and weird science experiments that both educate and entertain. Take a walk on the strange and slimy side with these fun-filled, hands-on activities that teach the principles of astronomy, biology, chemistry, earth science, and physics in the most entertaining and tactile way imaginable. Drip liquid mud to show how craters form on the moon, use toothpaste to simulate a shield volcano, and make your own ?flubber? with water, borax, and glue. Create a simulation of Jupiter?s stormy red spot, make raisins become plump and fluffy, grow cubes of salt crystals, recreate the phenomenon of sea breezes, and use magnetism to suspend objects in midair. Each of the dozens of experiments includes full color illustrations and safe, simple, step-by-step instructions.
