Award Winning Science Projects for “OUR” Kids
I just got an email from a parent who purchased the bonus pack of 24 Hour Science Projects. She wrote:
I thought that I’d send you an update… My grade 4 boy who has ADD and struggles in school just received a 1st for his science fair project, Can Water Pass Through an Egg Membrane? [...]
24 Hour Science Projects – Blogged!
Gear Diary is a cool blog featuring all the latest technology gadgets. They review and comment on the gear we all wish we had. One of the writers there recently posted a rant about his son’s science project. I sent him some information about our guides, and he blogged about us – despite the fact [...]
Your Chore List – How to Assign Chores to Kids
In the last post, I gave a list of five reasons showing how important it is for us to make sure our kids do chores. But just how do we assign chores that our kids can – and will – do? Here’s your chore list:

The Scienctific Method – Methodically Explained
The scientific method is a way to ask and find the answer to scientific questions by making observations and doing experiments. Depending on which science book you read, there are either four, five or six steps to the scientific method. (Doesn’t sound very scientific, does it…) For the purpose of this post, we’ve decided to [...]
Free Science Projects
Free science projects are all over the internet. A simple search for free projects gives up thousands of results. Unfortunately, in most cases, these ‘free’ projects prove that the old adage “you get what you pay for” is true.
For students headed to the science fair, most free science projects don’t give enough information to get [...]
Selecting A Science Fair Project Topic, by Wesley Skiles
As you begin the process of developing a science fair project, the hardest part may likely be choosing a topic. This is a strange problem since the variety and range of options is infinite, yet it is difficult to imagine the perfect one for you. There are also different types of projects (data or survey [...]
Middle School Science Projects – A Guide
Science Projects were easier in elementary school. Back then, you could submit a model rocket, an egg sucked into a bottle, or a simple science report on electricity. It’s different in middle school. Middle School science teachers want creative ideas, specific elements, in depth research, and detailed logs of the whole science fair process.
