There’s a clever book out entitled the “Potato Chip Science Book” that comes in what looks like a big bag of potato chips! But inside are interesting science experiments and a book that leads kids through 29 experiments that can be done with the materials in the bag, and other things found commonly around the home.
Written by A. Kurzweil & Son, and published by Workman Publishing of New York, the bag includes comical illustrations and labels such as “Warning: High in Saturated FACTS!”
The experiments are from the fields of physics, biology, chemistry and earth science plus one “edible project.” Each experiment has clear illustrations on how to conduct the experiment and drawings of the materials that will be needed, or how to use the simple items contained in the bag.
It is hours of fun for kids to work through alone, or with a parent and teacher in a classroom setting.
