We've had fun with this at home!

By Thriftbooks.com User, March 13, 2009

I home school my two little boys and we've had fun with this book. The primary reason I love this book is that the instructions for each activity are written so that parents and teachers can be aware of points of interest for kids, which might be overlooked by an adult. Another reviewer complained that the two sections about science centers and group activities can only be done in a classroom-- this is incorrect. Any of...

Lovely homeschooling book

By Thriftbooks.com User, June 30, 2008

I've read reviews that there's nothing "new" in this book. I'd argue that. As a homeschooling mom, I've read every book out there and was pleasantly surprised to find some new ideas or neat twists on old ideas. Sure, the lessons aren't real in depth and you may wish to supplement with other texts to further explain the experiment, but, it was written for preschoolers! I'd say we'll use this book for K and 1 too and fill in...

Wow! How fun is this!!

By Thriftbooks.com User, April 13, 2008

This book is great for all ages, despite the age recommendations. Great illustrations, detailed explanations and LOTS of fun! You can skip around or if an experiment (or topic) strikes your fancy look it up and fire away! NOT textbooky, which is a huge plus! These are the kind of books your kids will want to pick up and read just for the fun of it! (My kids are teen to toddler) An excellent addition to ANY homeschool library...

Not just for preschoolers!

By Thriftbooks.com User, May 22, 2004

I just checked out Mudpies to Magnets and More Mudpies to Magnets from our local library. I have heard so many wonderful comments about these books, but wanted to see for myself before purchasing them. They are great! I'm definitely buying them for our home. We will be homeschooling our daugther for kindergarten next year, and these books touch on all the subjects I want to cover - weather, magnetism, geology, plants,...

excellent teaching tool

By Thriftbooks.com User, January 23, 2004

I have just started a science program at our child's preschool using this book as my primary resource. I am so pleased with the lay-out of the book: how the experiments are sorted by age and subject, the lists of "Words to use" when teaching, the clear step-by-step instructions, and the throughness of the supplies list. What a fantastic teaching tool!
