Summary

This fun, fact-filled book is brimming with exciting outdoor experiments to help budding boffins explore the science in their own surroundings. Using household items, construct a water rocket and blast it skywards to learn about air pressure, or blow giant, long-lasting bubbles to reveal how surface tension works. Make a wormery and observe worms tunnelling, then build a diamond kite and discover the key to aerodynamics
