With The Everything Kids' Science Experiments Book, all you need to do is gather a few household items and you can recreate dozens of mind-blowing, kid-tested science experiments. High school science teacher Tom Robinson shows you how to expand your scientific horizons from biology, chemistry, physics, technology, and engineering-to outer space. You'll discover answers to questions like: -Is it possible to blow up a balloon without actually blowing into it? -What is inside coins? -Can a magnet ever be "turned off"? -Do toilets always flush in the same direction? -Can a swimming pool be cleaned with just the breath of one person? Whether you've always been interested in STEM or you're looking for a cool science fair project, you'll want to test these fun and educational experiments for yourself!
