Energy Power Lab for Kids: 40 Exciting Experiments to Explore, Create, Harness, and Unleash Energy

by Emily Hawbaker Author and Liz Lee Heinecke Author

Uniting this collection of science experiments for the kitchen, backyard, or classroom is the goal to explore and discover real energy solutions. With 250 color photographs, learn about:

  • chemical, radiant, and thermal energy by activating a glow stick and watching it get brighter in hot water.
  • viscosity by sucking soda and chocolate syrup up an "oil pipeline" made from straws.
  • solar energy by melting s'mores in a pizza box solar oven.
  • wind power by lifting paperclips with a wind turbine made from a cup, paper, tape, and straw.
  • calories by burning cheese puffs (and other food) in a homemade calorimeter.

(This book may contain a small, black sharpie mark on the bottom edge, so that it can't be returned to a different wholesaler.)
