Reviews for Science Lab

A great way to show how to have fun -- Child age 9 * Toppsta * I loved the photos and all the step by step instructions... if I had been younger I would have loved this book especially in the long school holidays -- Parent with children age 11 (Year 6) and Year 8 * Toppsta * The experiments make you want to start straight away... with photographic step-by-step instructions and an explanation of the science behind them. They all inspire further learning too. A thoroughly great, quality book. Would recommend! -- Parent with child age 7 * Toppsta * This book is bright, beautiful and colourful and has everything that the young and aspirational scientist might need to explore the world around them -- Parent with child age 5 * Toppsta * The illustrations are very good and I would recommend it for any fans of science -- Child age 8 * Toppsta * I think this book is excellent... I can't wait to take it in to show my friends at school -- Child age 10 * Toppsta * It is really good if you like science and experiments... I recommend the book for Year Two and Key Stage Two children -- Parent with child age 6 * Toppsta * Looking through they are certainly all exciting and challenging activities to inspire and possibly stretch the young STEM enthusiast -- Parent with child age 5 * Toppsta *
