Air and water are amazing stuff and lots of fun to experiment with. Both of these elements are vital to life on earth, but how much do you really know about them? Do you know what air and water are made of, how tough they are, and how they interact with other elements? Find out by making your own exciting experiments! Build up a better understanding of the world around you while having fun with hands-on science.

Energy is all around us--it''s the power we need to keep on moving. Energy takes loads of different forms, most of which we can''t even see--even though we encounter them every day! Do you know how heat, sound and light energy is stored and released, how we can use it, and what happens when it''s gone? Find out by making your own exciting experiments! Build up a better understanding of the world around you while having fun with hands-on science.

Forces are all about movement--they explain how and why things move. Dig a little deeper and you''ll find that magnetism is a big part of this, giving microscopic atoms the power to stick together or jump apart. Do you know how compasses work, what friction has to do with making things move, and how to transfer electrons from your body? Find out by making your own exciting experiments! Build up a better understanding of the world around you while having fun with hands-on science.

Most substances on Earth are mixtures of different molecules. The way these molecules react to each other causes all sorts of everyday mixtures and solutions, from butter to plastic to soap! Do you know what puts the fizz in fizzy drinks, what happens when water molecules meet fat molecules, and what reaction causes rain? Find out by making your own exciting experiments! Build up a better understanding of the world around you while having fun with hands-on science.

Engineering is about the magic of forces and the wonder of machines. Can you investigate how things work and become an extraordinary engineer? Discover how to make paperclips float in air, design a skyscraper, construct a super submarine, experiment with gears and springs, and much more! With over 30 astonishing do-at-home experiments, incredible facts and stats and cool illustrations, this amazing STEM book helps you distinguish your racks from your ratchets and your cams from your cranks. The STEM editorial consultant is Georgette Yakman, founding researcher and creator of the integrative STEAM framework.
