Science Smart

Vibrantly colorful pictures plus 150 creative crafts and entertaining experiments equal science fun for kids. From a hot air balloon to a primitive kiln, here's the hands-on way for children to learn all about the world around them. Every project will encourage the budding scientist and inventor, and sidebars throughout answer the important questions. This is just some of what they can do:·   The bird, bees and animals too: Construct an observation station to study close-to-home wildlife without scaring them away.·   Dig into Planet Earth: Create a "fossil" that looks a million years old.·   Map and measure: On the ground and up in the sky, chart where things are by making and using maps of all kinds, or assembling a cross staff to measure the altitude of stars just as the early explorers did.They're perfect for science fairs, school projects, or just for the joy of discovery.

Drawing Ten Thousand Things is a catalog published in coordination with an art exhibition that celebrates the completion of a four-year project in which the artist made daily drawings and numbered them until she reached 10,000. The catalog contains photographs of fifty of the sketchbook pages as well as pictures of the covers of all forty or so sketchbooks. There is also a brief essay about the process written by the artist.

If you'd rather be outdoors than anyplace else, if you like to bring home cones and leaves and rocks but never know what to do with them, then Nature Crafts for Kids is for you. Organized by season, the more than 50 outdoor projects will show you how to learn by doing, as well as by looking and reading. You'll dig for clay in a creek bank, make pinch pots just as Native Americans did hundreds of years ago, and build a sawdust kiln that really works. There's even an ant house and a worm farm, candles sculpted in sand, a "stained glass" project made from autumn leaves and a cement birdbath. Recommended for ages 8+. Not recommended for children under eight years of age. Some projects require adult supervision.
