ChrissySC Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Don't forget to keep a book basket that has things related to history and science that has lots of pictures. :) I think it looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairProspects Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 How much science have your boys had? Are they science lovers? I ask because those of us on the board with 6 y.o. boys (and I know of several) all dumped Elemental Science Intro last year because it was too light. I really think it is better for the 5 & under crowd or those with very minimal previous exposure to science. Most of the experiments were things we had already done by age 6. Just a thought in case you hadn't bought it or looked through it yet. It may be perfect for your family, but with kids your ages I would double check.

It was great for the 4 year old, but most of it was beneath the 6 year old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
