Synopsis
Even young children can understand the science behind sight, sound, smell, touch and taste, thanks to these simple explanations and safe, easy experiments. With a drinking glass, water, plastic shrinkwrap, sellotape, a spoon, a small toy and an adult's help, create an optical device that magnifies objects! Find out why salt is salty and sugar sweet or why feathers tickle your skin. - Sight - Why do some people wear glasses? What is a blind spot? Can my eyes play tricks on me? Hearing - Can my ears fool me too? Why do I have two ears? Why shouldn't I poke things in my ears? Touch - Why do things feel hot and cold at the same time? Can I tell what things are without seeing them? How do blind people read? Smell - Can I tell what something is just by smelling it? How do scratch-and-sniff stickers work? How good is my nose at smelling things? Taste - Where are my taste buds? Why don't things taste the same when I have a cold? Can I taste colour? * Fun science activities for younger children, aged 5 to 8 years old. * Illustrated in full colour throughout with wonderful colour cartoons by Steve Harpster.
