About the Book

Make, play, explore, and learn with this project-packed science activity book!

Little ones will love to get in on the maker fun with this cool book that supplements and complements the subjects they learn at school, while also encouraging hands-on interactivity and play.

With clear step-by-step instructions and photos, young children will learn about a given subject through interactive activities, crafts, and experiments. There are a huge variety of projects to choose from--from watching a homemade volcano erupt or building a storm in a jar to taking a trip back in time to see how the Roman legionaries conquered their enemies. In addition to nature and history, the book also covers wildlife and space, so there's something for animal lovers and future astronauts alike.

The 20 interactive activities, crafts, and experiments in this book have been carefully designed to complement what children are learning at school, and all projects can be made with basic household items or inexpensive and easy-to-find art supplies. Whether your child is an aspiring scientist or astronaut, or is simply curious about our great big world, Junior Maker will get them thinking, learning, and making!
