The Kitchen Pantry Scientist: Physics for Kids

Science Experiments and Activities Inspired by Awesome Physicists, Past and Present

Make a water rocket and engineer the perfect paper airplane. Play with mirror images. Use atmospheric pressure to push an egg into a bottle. Crush a mint to create a flash of light. Aspiring young physicists will discover an amazing group of inspiring scientists and memorable experiments in Physics for Kids, the third book of The Kitchen Pantry Scientist series!

This engaging guide offers a series of snapshots of 25 scientists — half of them women — famous for their work with physics from ancient history through today. Each lab tells the illustrated story of a scientist along with some background about the importance of their work, and a description of where it is still being used or reflected in today’s world. Then, a step-by-step experiment paired with each story offers kids a hands-on opportunity for exploring concepts the scientists pursued, or are working on today.

Experiments range from very simple projects using materials you probably already have on hand, to more complicated ones that may require a few inexpensive items you can purchase online. It's a fascinating introduction to physics that shows kids that this branch of science can teach you how the world works!
