Books with title Let's Play!

Fun, easy experiments that help children ages 5–8 grasp science basics—effortlessly: that’s what Let’s Play Science is all about. Written by an expert who teaches at one of America’s most highly regarded schools, it will grab kids’ attention and provide a firm foundation for future learning. Mary Stetten Carson knows what her audience likes and how they absorb information: she covers such popular topics as growing things, the human body, magnets, machines, water, and more. Each activity is explained in the simplest language, often with questions that gently guide youngsters through the scientific process. Among the entertaining experiments: playing a “touch game” with different objects; making a rainbow in a glass; and constructing a coat hanger balance.

Reporting Child Abuse Try to be as specific as you can. For example, instead of saying, "The parents are not dressing their children right," say something like, "I saw the child running outside three times this week in subzero weather without a jacket or hat. I saw him shivering and uncomfortable. He seemed to want to come inside." However, remember that it is not your job to prove abuse or neglect. If suspicions are all you have, you should report those as well. $20.95 If you are concerned that a child you know may be a victim of abuse, call your local law enforcement agency or find your states child abuse report number at childrensvoiceinc.org
