Science in Seconds for Kids: Over 100 Experiments You Can Do in Ten Minutes or Less
I bought this book for my 3 year old son since he has an interest in science. When I got the book I was disappointed in the experiments listed, such as disecting an osyter and fish. Not that I have problems with that, but I was looking for something that you can find objects around the house and more cause and reaction type thing.
Rating: 3 / 5
If the child I bought this for didn’t want it, I would have kept the book for myself! Great fun to be had by both the adult and the child as they do the experiments in the book.
Rating: 5 / 5
My DH is using this and other books for a science and gadget class with 10 K-2 kids. He likes this book as the experiments are easy and fast paced enough to keep the kids’ attention, a real issue with this bunch.

I disagree with Dixie who had written the previous review! The book was not written for 3 year olds! A good parent reviews the info and suggested age levels in the review section before buying. We have been very happy with these books. After buying one other, we bought this one and love it just as much. These experiments are simple to read and study. But the teach important science concepts so I am as happy as a mom can be…but again…I read the age level before buying the book! Someday I hope to make a list of recommended books…this will be one!

My children and I have used this book until it has become tattered and torn. Not only are the science activities easy to understand, they are easy to do and don’t require any special equipment. I would highly recommend this book…I loved it so much, that I now have a collection of all of this author’s books.
