This fun, activity-filled book is brimming with home experiments to help budding scientists aged 8-14 explore different projects. Using household items, combine science with art and craft, and make an erupting volcano, design rubber band planets, sail a soap-powered boat, and race car balloons.

Packed with photography, easy-to-follow instructions, and attention to detail, Home Activity Lab will excite young scientists from the get-go! Each of the super-fun make-and-do projects in this book comes with simple step-by-step photographs and instructions that will inspire children’s imagination and teach STEM topics.
