Summary

"From the host and co-executive producer of Netflix's Emily's Wonder Lab and executive producer of Xploration Outer Space, comes a book designed to introduce the wonders of science to the whole family. Emily Calandrelli, MIT engineer and scientist, shares exhilarating experiments for junior scientists and their lab assistants, ranging from homemade ice cream to disappearing ink. The book features 50 experiments that use easy-to-find grocery store items. Each experiment includes the science behind how it works, a Hypothesize section for everyone to think about what they think will happen, science vocabulary that helps apply the STEM research to real life (did you know that ketchup is a non-newtonian fluid?) and Try This! prompts with even more ways to experiment, with your experiment. Science experiments can help spark curiosity and critical thinking. So grab your googles and a family member and get started!"--
