Description

With a wide variety of projects, this impressive resource is the perfect tool to take kitchen science to a whole new level and is fun for kids and adults alike! 

If your kids enjoy working in the kitchen and creative endeavors, this colorful cookbook is chock-full of recipes, building projects, and food-based experiments. This full-color, hardcover cookbook offers way more activities than just measuring and mixing ingredients. Your child will be building bridges, assembling fruit vehicles, and seeing scientific principles in practice. Each activity features bright inset text to explain the scientific principles involved. The lay-flat binding allows your young scientist to refer easily to the directions. If you struggle to read certain font colors and sizes, please be aware that the main text font is quite light and small and may be difficult to read for newer readers or older adults.

If you have a child who needs hands-on learning, this is the perfect resource to sneak in some solid science without them realizing it … and it may even entice your child to try new foods!

Note: Although this book is written for children, many of the projects will require some adult supervision, especially the ones that involve knives or the stove.  I would check each activity for safety concerns before letting your child loose in the kitchen! ~ Tara
