saying all those bad words for. The pictures are really funny and I like the explanations on why these experiments work. I wish it was bigger with more experiments and I also wish that the experiments used more items that we had in the house. You're not giving this one away are you?

Jake's Rating: 10/10

Mom's Review: Any book that gets kids interested in science is cool with me. Especially when they are having so much fun with it, they don't even realize they are learning something. There should be books like this for EVERY subject in school, than our kids would love going to school. The pictures are delightful, the experiments easy to read and follow. Even cleaning up isn't that big of a deal -- but Jake -- there is no way in HELL (oops, that is going to cost me a quarter in the swear jar) that I am having any of your heathen friends over to do experiments in my kitchen!!! My only real complaint in the book, is that a lot of the experiments include things that I would have to go out and pay for, and I don't like to spend money you know!
