Great science book. Wonderful explanations with easy to follow examples and activities to do with your child. Science was always something I worried about teaching, but with tools like this one it becomes very easy!

Leonardo’s Science Workshop would make an excellent resource for teachers looking for multidisciplinary lesson plans with an emphasis on the pure sciences and technology.
