Product Description

"This book is a good starting place for finding successful science-fair projects."--School Library Journal

"Can provide needed direction to parents and students facing looming classroom deadlines."--The Los Angeles Times

"Offers a real variety to young scientists."--Parent Council(R), Selected as Outstanding


Any kid can be a winner, and take top honors at the school science fair, by picking one of these 100 proven first-place projects. Among the cool ideas: demonstrate the action of magnetic fields, make a moon box, build "ant architecture," and measure static electricity. Plus, there's plenty of fun in creating homemade perfume and erupting volcanoes; doing a bubble gum plant graft; and building a big green solar machine. Youngsters will find plenty of hints for crafting eye-catching displays, too.

questionable testing1
I spent a considerable amount of time and money buying the supplies for one of the projects related to electromagnetism. I had to hunt items down from several hardware stores and spent around $30-40. The experiment did not work at all. I tried changing some of the components around, spending more money, and it still didn't work. In rereading the project "("springy spring"), I'm not sure it even made theoretical sense, although I am a physician not an engineer. An engineer probably would have realized it wouldn't work and spared him/herself the aggravation and cost. After wasting my time with this over the course of several days, my son and I moved on to other book and another experiment.
