A perfect balance between education and fun, Science Activity Lab teaches young readers through each experiment, describing the science behind it and highlighting STEM facts. The richly illustrated activities promote further thinking by suggested 'Test and Tweak' notes, which encourage young readers to take their projects to the next level.

Each activity has its own 'How It Works' section covering STEM principles to help young minds satisfy their curiosity, stimulating their thinking and problem-solving skills.

This STEM-filled activity book is organised into four sections: Forces and Motion, Liquids and Reactions, Shapes and Structures, Light and Sound.
