The Wizard's Guide to Magical Experiments: 40 Experiments to Try at Home
Welcome to the Touchwood Academy of Magical Thinking! This beautifully designed and illustrated book, takes what could have been a straightforward non-fiction book of home experiments and creates a world of magic and scientific spells.
While the experiments in this book are firmly based in science and chemistry, the book really captures the magic and imagination that can play as much a part in the experiments as the simple everyday materials involved. This is an accessible but fun way to introduce children to scientific concepts, while the thought which is evident in the book’s layout and progression of topics will capture the attention of the reader. Small booklets, fold-outs and activities all combine to add to the playful nature of the book as well as the ‘Certificate of Graduation’ which is included at the end of the book.
While this book is ideal for children from the ages of 7, it is also one that can act as a reference book once all the experiments have been tried – perfect to have on hand for older children.
