STEAM AHEAD! DIY for KIDS: Activity pack with Science/Technology/Engineering/Art/Math making and building activities for 4-10 year old kids

I read this book with my nephew who has recently began to show a very strong interest in the sciences, and I must admit that the book truly turned out to be much better than I expected. In fact, I think I even enjoyed it just as much as he did.What I really admire about the read is that it’s easy to tell early on that the author truly has a passion for educating and inspiring younger readers. The activities are not only written in a clear, easy-to-understand manner, but also with a genuine enthusiasm – which I personally think is a major factor as to why the book was so well-received. As well as this, there’s plenty of different activities to choose from and the actual process of creating and following the steps is almost as fun as seeing the final product itself. To put it simply, I am left more than satisfied by the author and I hope to see more in the future!

Wonderful book with fun and science activities. STEAM AHEAD is easy to understand and has got lot of interesting activities for the kids to explore and innovate more ideas. My 7 year old daughter would love to experiment these projects and she wanted to start with cloud lanterns. This book makes it interesting for both the kids and also the adults assisting them. The experiments in the book has got illustrations which is very useful for the kids to understand and follow each and every step. It is a great buy!

This book has some great holiday projects for families to do together, some of them best suited to older children and requiring adult supervision. Be aware that for some projects you will need supplies that you don’t have around the house such as LED lights, 3v & 9v batteries and cable connectors. Once you have everything you need, the activities look as though they will be lots of fun and kids interested in science and technology in particular will be able to learn as they create their masterpieces. I’m really looking forward to trying some of these out over the holidays!

I am always looking for simple low-cost ideas for teacher workshops. This book has clear step-by-step instructions anyone can follow.

Directions are left out or difficult to understand. Not worth the cost.

I am looking forward to using these activities with my students

Sumita Mukherjee, author of the book “Steam Ahead,” offers a great book for creative children interested in working on projects that are not only interesting but also practical. Student projects have run the gamut from hypothesis testing to expanding imagination and creativity today. Sumita provides a step-by-step guide in her book. The material list will save parents a great deal of time accumulating the necessary material for each experiment. This is a must-have book for children that need to create an award winning project for school or any competition. I strongly recommend this book.

Very good book! Able to use several activities.

This book has some very good ideas for kids to think and create things which they will enjoy making. I have a 5 , 7 and a 10 year old and this book has activities for all of them. My three kids would love to make the fruit pop, my 7&10 year old girls would love to create a glow in the dark bracelet or a necklace. The book provides the kids with steps which are easy and simple for them to follow. Parents will not have to spend a lot of money to buy the materials as these are not expensive at all. I am looking forward in doing some experiments from this book with my children during the holidays. STEAM AHEAD is a great activity book for kids !!

Looks like a great project book for kids of all ages and fun,

Parece que es un libro serio, pero es una revistilla mal editada, parece que está hecha en casa en word

Great well thought out activities. The pictures are beautiful and the instructions are easy to follow. My kids really enjoy this book.

What a let down!After reading the glowing endorsements of this book I decided to order it for my 8 year old grandson.When it arrived I read through it to see what equipment and resources will be needed - my daughter has a very busy worklife so they needed to be readily sourced - well, the activities require more specialised components than most households would have, and so would involve quite a lot of shopping and expense.As a former teacher, I consider many of the activities at best, time fillers, and at worst a waste of time!I shall be returning this item, whether or not I get a refund
