Amazing (Mostly) Edible Science: A Family Guide to Fun Experiments in the Kitchen

It is so much fun doing science experiments with my kids that they can eat. This book makes science more interesting and applicable to daily life. The juicy gel beads are not only fun but they tasted good. You have to be patient with this project, but the results are well worth it. Now we are thinking of recipes, like drinks, where we can use the juicy gel beads. The edible slime is right up kids' alley. Mine loved it. Be prepared for it to be very sticky. The amber maple sugar crystals are delicious. It was fun for us to make them, eat them, and start our journey on learning about crystals. In my opinion, this one requires adult involvement. There are scientific explanations after each experiment/project. The author also makes suggestions where to find the ingredients. So glad I bought this book since it makes learning seamless and fun.

Nice book, but most of the projects can be found on the internet. It was however nice to have on hand when forcing my child to have to turn through actual pages in a book and read about the science and directions himself. I did have to keep referencing the fact that not every food on the book is edible!

Love it!

Love these experiments!!! I also love that this books explains the "why" it happens at the end of every experiment.

Gave as gift. The children loved it. Great family fun.

looks like a great book with fun family recipes

All my kids loved this book - neat ideas

Good variety of experiments

I have now bought this for my children, my nieces and my friends kids. This is the best kitchen science book I've seen. My boys and their cousins love making the recipes in the book.
