Forty fun, foolproof, and fascinating science experiments that can be conducted in a glass canning jar, from water fireworks and soda stalactites to a caterpillar hatchery, rubber eggs, a balloon barometer, and much more.
The same qualities that make canning jars great for pickling - heatproof, see-through, and durable - also makes them perfect kitchen laboratories for junior scientists. Fascinated by the mysteries of experimentation and the Aha! moments of scientific discovery, kids will love making baking soda stalactites, water prisms, balloon barometers, and more. The 40 interactive projects are grouped by fields of science, from the Magic of Chemistry and Earth Science for Earthlings to Botany Basics and Let’s Get Physic(al). An illustrated diagram explains the science behind each project, which budding scientists can put to the test in real-time.
About the Author:
Jonathan Adolph, the former editor of the award-winning FamilyFun magazine, developed hundreds of "stealth learning" games and kitchen-science activities in his 20-year career. He specialises in making technical information fun for kids and is an adjunct professor of journalism at the University of Massachusetts.

And the best part of all, it's a door-to-door service which not only affordable, but convenient too!
Australia is a large country geographically which means transit times can vary significantly from one location to the next. Deliveries can take anywhere between 1 and 10 days, or even more to places like Christmas Island and other similar remote areas.
