Mudpies is great resource for teachers and parents
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I had to have some Science experiments for my education classes, and More Mudpies gave me more than I was looking for. It's a great resource to use for pre-service teachers, beginning teachers and experienced teachers. Parents can also use this at home to get their child enthused about Science.

Fabulous!

We LOVE this book! The world of quality science books for very young children is sadly lacking. Mudpies to Magnets definitely fills a huge void. The book is detailed, clear, accurate, and age appropriate. Don't think this book is strictly for young children, older ones enjoy it as well. It really helped reinforce concepts in a real, fun way. If your kids are struggling with science or think its 'boring' you definitely need this book.
Great science intro for young kids!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
I love this book! It is a great introduction to science for young kids, beginning with pre-school age. Sensible focus on asking questions, observing and measuring phenomena. Uses a child's natural curiosity about the world all around and harnesses it to encourage the systematic thought on which science is based. I will be teaching a science class for my daughter's Montessori class every two weeks and will take many (most?) of my lessons from this book!
Fabulous one-page experiments with good science explanations
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This book and the original Mudpies to Magnets are my best choices for simple, one-page science activities. These science books and experiments were clearly written with the parent or teacher in mind. Although the books contain a wealth of knowledge and experiments, none of the material is overwhelming for the adult participant. The experiments themselves require only inexpensive, household materials. And each of the experiments that we have tried are fun. One caveat: Ignore the age rankings as a wide variety of children (up to age 10) can enjoy all the experiments in these books...from The Science Spiders(TM) Newsletter.
