STEAM Lab for Kids

Steam Lab for Kids is an art forward lab book that helps kids engage in experiments while also using their artistic side. Clear, step by step instructions of experiments focusing on angular momentum, electrical conductors, kinetic energy, parabolic curves, symmetry and much more. Each experiment has suggestions on how to take your experiment to the next level as well as explanations of the “STEAM Behind the Fun”. Digging deeper into the artistry of these experiments will help uncover more of the math and STEAM aspects that will help pull the whole experiment together. 

The popular Lab for Kids series features a growing list of books that share hands-on activities and projects on a wide host of topics, including art, astronomy, clay, geology, math, and even how to create your own circus—all authored by established experts in their fields.

Each lab contains a complete materials list, clear step-by-step photographs of the process, as well as finished samples. The labs can be used as singular projects or as part of a yearlong curriculum of experiential learning. The activities are open-ended, designed to be explored over and over, often with different results. Geared toward being taught or guided by adults, they are enriching for a range of ages and skill levels.
