With Sheet Pan Science, contain the mess and let the fun overflow with 25 safe, easy physics, biology, and chemistry projects.Each project in the book contains simple instructions, easy-to-understand science explanations, and step-by-step photographic guides. While a stovetop or freezer may occasionally be required, most steps of the experiments can be performed directly on a rimmed baking sheet.Messy play is important for young learners. Mixing colors, creating bubbly chemical reactions, and playing with goo are visual and tactile experiences that create strong memory pathways. In addition to allowing kids to explore and hone problem-solving skills, science experimentation encourages curiosity and engages a sense of wonder. A sheet pan and a few simple ingredients will instantly transform any kitchen countertop into a laboratory bench filled with fizzy fun.The projects in Sheet Pan Science cater to a wide range of interests. While some kids love getting their hands into cornstarch goo, others will enjoy creating colorful tie-dye milk. Using a lemon, aspiring geologists can test rock collections to see whether they contain limestone. Art lovers may gravitate towards fabric dying and leaf prints, while budding chefs can play with edible experiments. Ice Globe create a colorful explosion of carbon dioxide gas foaming from hollow frozen spheres.Engage your child with hours of science fun and learning.

* 2021 AAAS/Subaru SB&F Prize for Excellence in Science Books in Middle Grade Longlist* 2021 NSTA-CBC Outstanding Science Trade Book * 2021 EUREKA! Nonfiction Children’s Honor BookAspiring young chemists will discover an amazing group of role models and memorable experiments in Chemistry for Kids, the debut book of The Kitchen Pantry Scientist series.Replicate a chemical reaction similar to one Marie Curie used to purify radioactive elements. Distill perfume using a method created in ancient Mesopotamia by a woman named Tapputi.This engaging guide offers a series of snapshots of 25 scientists famous for their work with chemistry, from ancient history through today. Each lab tells the story of a scientist along with some background about the importance of their work, and a description of where it is still being used or reflected in today’s world.A step-by-step illustrated experiment paired with each story offers kids a hands-on opportunity for exploring concepts the scientists pursued, or are working on today. Experiments range from very simple projects using materials you probably already have on hand, to more complicated ones that may require a few inexpensive items you can purchase online. Just a few of the incredible people and scientific concepts you’ll explore:Galen (b. 129 AD)Make soap from soap base, oil, and citrus peels.Modern application: medical disinfectantsJoseph Priestly (b. 1733)Carbonate a beverage using CO2 from yeast or baking soda and vinegar mixture.Modern application: soda fountainsAlessandra Volta (b. 1745)Make a battery using a series of lemons and use it to light an LED. Modern application: car batteryTu Youyou (b. 1930)Extract compounds from plants.Modern application: pharmaceuticals and cosmeticsPeople have been tinkering with chemistry for thousands of years. Whether out of curiosity or by necessity, Homo sapiens have long loved to play with fire: mixing and boiling concoctions to see what interesting, beautiful, and useful amalgamations they could create. Early humans ground pigments to create durable paint for cave walls, and over the next 70 thousand years or so as civilizations took hold around the globe, people learned to make better medicines and discovered how to extract, mix, and smelt metals for cooking vessels, weapons, and jewelry. Early chemists distilled perfume, made soap, and perfected natural inks and dyes.Modern chemistry was born around 250 years ago, when measurement, mathematics, and the scientific method were officially applied to experimentation. In 1896, after the first draft of the periodic table was published, scientists rushed to fill in the blanks. The elemental discoveries that followed gave scientists the tools to visualize the building blocks of matter for the first time in history, and they proceeded to deconstruct the atom. Since then, discovery has accelerated at an unprecedented rate. At times, modern chemistry and its creations have caused heartbreaking, unthinkable harm, but more often than not, it makes our lives better.With this fascinating, hands-on exploration of the history of chemistry, inspire the next generation of great scientists.Dig into even more incredible science history from The Kitchen Pantry Scientist series with: Biology for Kids, Physics for Kids, Math for Kids, and Ecology for Kids.

Just a few of the incredible people and scientific concepts you’ll explore:Galen (b. 129 AD)Make soap from soap base, oil, and citrus peels.Modern application: medical disinfectantsJoseph Priestly (b. 1733)Carbonate a beverage using CO2 from yeast or baking soda and vinegar mixture.Modern application: soda fountainsAlessandra Volta (b. 1745)Make a battery using a series of lemons and use it to light an LED. Modern application: car batteryTu Youyou (b. 1930)Extract compounds from plants.Modern application: pharmaceuticals and cosmeticsPeople have been tinkering with chemistry for thousands of years. Whether out of curiosity or by necessity, Homo sapiens have long loved to play with fire: mixing and boiling concoctions to see what interesting, beautiful, and useful amalgamations they could create. Early humans ground pigments to create durable paint for cave walls, and over the next 70 thousand years or so as civilizations took hold around the globe, people learned to make better medicines and discovered how to extract, mix, and smelt metals for cooking vessels, weapons, and jewelry. Early chemists distilled perfume, made soap, and perfected natural inks and dyes.Modern chemistry was born around 250 years ago, when measurement, mathematics, and the scientific method were officially applied to experimentation. In 1896, after the first draft of the periodic table was published, scientists rushed to fill in the blanks. The elemental discoveries that followed gave scientists the tools to visualize the building blocks of matter for the first time in history, and they proceeded to deconstruct the atom. Since then, discovery has accelerated at an unprecedented rate. At times, modern chemistry and its creations have caused heartbreaking, unthinkable harm, but more often than not, it makes our lives better.With this fascinating, hands-on exploration of the history of chemistry, inspire the next generation of great scientists.Dig into even more incredible science history from The Kitchen Pantry Scientist series with: Biology for Kids, Physics for Kids, Math for Kids, and Ecology for Kids.

Just a few of the incredible people and scientific concepts you’ll explore:Maria Sibylla Merian (b. 1647)Observe, photograph and illustrate insects on plantsScientific concepts: observation and documentation of insect habitat and metamorphosisCharles Darwin (b. 1809)Play a competitive advantage game.Scientific concepts: natural selection and evolutionLouis Pasteur (b. 1822)Make a flask like Pasteur’s to grow microbes from the air.Scientific concepts: microbial fermentation and germ theoryRae Wynn-Grant (b. 1985)Use cookie crumbs to attract ants. Observe the behavior of ants and other animals.Scientific concepts: ecology and animal behaviorBiology is the name for the study of living organisms, but long before the word biologist was coined, people around the world realized that by studying the world around them, they could improve their lives. Learning about plants and insects helped them discover new medicines and grow better crops. Studying animals taught them how to raise healthy poultry, cattle, and horses for food, farming, and transportation.Today’s biologists study everything imaginable. From oceans, jungles, and cities to the space station, the universe is their laboratory. Like those who went before them, they are fascinated by plants, animals, and microbes and understand that their discoveries can make the world a better place for all living things.With this fascinating, hands-on exploration of the history of biology, inspire the next generation of great scientists.Dig into even more incredible science history from The Kitchen Pantry Scientist series with: Chemistry for Kids, Physics for Kids, Math for Kids, and Ecology for Kids.
