Written by Karyn Tripp, author of Math Art and Drawing Games for Kids and creator of the popular educational blog TeachBesideMe.com, the book guides children ages 8 and up through hands-on activities that explore an engaging variety of art and craft techniques and science concepts, including:

• Energy & Motion. Create art, toys, and sculptures that spin, flap, and climb.
• Electricity & Magnetism. Make special light-up greeting cards, and use magnets to create abstract paintings and solve mazes.
• Living Science. Craft tiny terrariums, create plantable seed paper, and make your own paints using natural materials.
• Chemical Reactions. Create exploding paintballs, grow a garden of crystal flowers, and learn to make plastic out of milk.
• Color & Light. Combine shaving cream and food coloring to make marbled paper, use the sun to print on paper and fabric, and make an awesome kaleidoscope from scratch.
