Junk Drawer Physics: 50 Awesome Experiments That Don't Cost a Thing (Junk Drawer Science)

We have most of the books from this series and we love them all!! I’ve been homeschooling for 3 years now and we much prefer these books to boring science curriculum. Plus, we always learn more than the activities intend. That’s how you know it’s good!!

Purchased as gift for 13 yr old nephew who is in advanced math and enjoys problem solving. Said book was cool and started doing experiments as soon as he got the book. Believe this gift is a winner!

I like the fact that it contains easy to find materials

I bought this to take with me when visiting my grand kids. They liked it so much I left it with them. Use this as inspiration for new ideas as much as for following what they did. It's a great experience for kids to design new projects - especially if you don't have exactly the same junk in your drawer.

Crazy me I took on teaching physics to 12 year olds in my homeschool coop. While I am fascinated by the subject, I really have no formal background to draw on. This book helped save my butt! ( this and YouTube :) Experiments are the way to go with kids and this is great book for easy and inexpensive. It delivers on what it says.

Love it! Easy to follow and great to do with the kids. This guy knows his physics and follows Einstein's idea that if you can't explain it simply you don't really know it! Even I can explain to my kids how these physics concepts work now!

Seems like a good idea book. But I really wish the pictures were in color. I bought this for my 11 years old grandson. I have a feeling he's gonna loose interest because the photos are black and white.

Great tween book for a gift, a ton of fun experiments!
