This site has age appropriate experiments and
science activities. Non-commercial site, part of a mentoring website
for education in Michigan.
A great place for students & parents to find ideas and how-to's for a great science fair project.
Excellent examples and
resources, some free materials. I liked this site much more than the
Science Buddies website. More K-5 oriented.
Love anything related to the brain. Some brain related experiments on this site.
Steve Spangler, in connection with TV Channel 9 in Colorado, has a science website with a page full of good
advice for parents on helping your child select a good project for a
science fair. He also explains the difference between a science
experiment and a science demonstration. (One way to think of the
difference is an experiment is about discovering results, a demonstration is an
explanation of a scientific concept.)
