It's pure bottled magic! A science experiment kit that's as much fun as a bubbly soda!Pop Bottle Science presents 79 easy, hands-on experiments that probe the worlds of chemistry, physics, biology, geology, weather, the human body, and even astronomy! It's a book and kit, all packaged in a bottle that makes a perfect miniature science lab: see-through, flexible, air-tight when necessary, made out of a durable, shatter-proof plastic and designed with a removable top that doubles as a funnel. In the kit is a lively, fully illustrated 96-page guide to astonishing and easy science experiments to perform at home with materials you have on hand. Each experiment begins with a challenge and ends with an explanation of the scientific principles involved. Kids can design a volcano and watch it erupt. Create a tornado-maker and see how twisters work. Make quicksand--is it solid or liquid? Observe photosynthesis in action. Simulate Jupiter's giant red spot, investigate buoyancy, demonstrate inertia, and discover the Bernoulli principle--which allows planes to fly. Plus, turn the bottle into a barometer, a thermometer, walkie-talkie, trombone, compass--or groovy lava lamp. Kit also contains tools for the science experiments: measuring cup, measuring spoons, balloons, cork bottle stopper, and eyedropper.
