Begin a lifetime of scientific investigation and understanding with 29 fun experiments in 5 key areas: nature, physics, chemistry, air, and water. Learn what plants need in order to grow, observe the clouds, see how water climbs, watch plants sweat, and investigate plant propagation. Discover how a magnifying glass enlarges, how colors mix, how static electricity attracts, how sundials tell time, and how a motion picture works. Investigate air pressure, air flow, hovercraft, paper airplanes, and suction. Write secret messages, float a paper clip, blow super bubbles, observe capillary action, and test displacement. Build a soap-driven boat, mix oil and water, experiment with evaporation, paint with sugar, and watch colors separate. With a 48-page illustrated guidebook, Stepping into Science teaches science fundamentals with step-by-step, hands-on experiments, while also introducing children to the scientific method itself.Details:58 pieces29 experiments48-page manualContents:3 Paper sheetsDie-cut cardboardGarden cress seedsPlastic dishMagnifying glass2 Flexible straws6 StrawsClay potPlastic bagDisk/spinning topSundialPlastic stick5 Rubber bands1 Polystyrene ball3 Paper bags2 Paper clips1 Suction cupBlotting paperSoap bubble ringModeling clayWool threadSmall polystyrene boat2 Pipettes2 Measuring cups2 Measuring cup lids12 Round filter papers1 Polystyrene air-cushion boat1 Polystyrene disk1 Funnel
