  • Baker & Taylor
    Created in association with the Smithsonian, a treasury of kid-friendly activities for aspiring young inventors combines engaging facts with vibrant photographs that explain basic scientific concepts and includes instructions for such projects as an exploding volcano, bath fizzies and an eggshell geode.
  • Baker & Taylor
    Presents over two dozen simple science activities using food, common household items, water, and the outdoors.
  • Penguin Putnam
    Supporting STEAM education initiatives and the Maker Movement, the National Parenting Publication Award-winner Maker Lab includes 28 kid-safe projects and crafts that will get young inventors' wheels turning and make science pure fun.

    Each step-by-step activity is appropriate for kids ages 8–12, and ranked easy, medium, or hard, with an estimated time frame for completion. Requiring only household materials, young makers can build an exploding volcano, race balloon rocket cars, construct a lemon battery, make sticky slime, and more. Photographs and facts carefully detail the "why" and "how" of each experiment using real-world examples to provide context so kids can gain a deeper understanding of the scientific principles applied.

    With a foreword by Jack Andraka, a teen award-winning inventor, Maker Lab will help kids find their inner inventor and create winning projects for school projects, science fairs, and beyond.
