Website: http://www.exploratorium.edu/science_explorer/
Appropriate for ages: 8-12
Helps with: Science
Review: This website has several simple science experiments. They are intended to be done with items from around the house. Some require adult supervision, while others could probably be done independently. I like this website because it can help to cultivate a child's curiosity in a good way. It is good for children to learn how things work and to experiment with science in everyday life. I found that the experiments are very clearly illustrated. It should not be hard for children to follow these directions with a little help or (if there are no safety issues) on their own.
*If you like this site, they have published 2 books full of more experiments. The Science Explorer and The Science Explorer: Out and About.
