The human body is amazing, from its ability to heal to the special shape of body parts that help them do their job. In this book presented by Scientific American, young scientists tackle 10 experiments that teach them more about their bodies, including their how their blood flows, how the body breathes, and even the shape and size of their ears! Each experiment includes a background section explaining the science behind what readers are testing, a thorough materials list, and understandable instructions. Some projects offer expansion of the experiment, making them perfect for science fairs and school projects.

Totally reminded me why I loved science so much in school. The human body is fascinating and finding experiments that mimic what’s happening in the body is so much fun (and educational). Let your curiosity run wild while using these experiments to guide your questions and processes. Well written with clear directions, observations, suggestions, and reminders of key concepts. It even has a clean-up section that prompts best way to recycle and reduce waste. Great for classrooms, homeschoolers, or just those with a curiosity towards how the human body works in a visible representation.
I received a complimentary copy from the publisher and all opinions expressed are solely my own, freely given.
Looked through this and tried a couple experiments so far to go along with my kids’ body unit study! We all enjoyed how colorful, and informative this book is- without going into overload mode with info dumping. Very cool thought out experiments with clear instructions- my kids are 2nd and 4.th grade and we loved it! Can’t wait to explore it more!
This book gives fun and do-able experiments and demonstrations for kids to do to learn about the human body. What I especially like about it is that it gives background information, materials, step by step information of how to prepare and do the experiment, how to observe and what the results should be, as well as recommendations for how to clean up. I think that sometimes kids need all of those steps specifically written out for them.
A terrific book to make science interesting and fun at home. Also I loved the “science fair” asides on some of the experiments. That was a great bonus.
This is a picture books about experiments based on the fuctions of the human body. It tells the facts on how different organs work and how one can know that with easy steps to build projects under art and craft. There were knowledge based on biology which we read in syllabus but for now a days youngsters it is good way to learn or revised their curriculum.
