With school ending and summer fast approaching, keep in mind that the Youth Library has a large collection of science kits that can be checked out for children ages 6 and up. Each of these kits are sure to keep you and your kids engaged and learning new things. Some of them will have you taking trips outside to explore nature and others are perfect for really hot days or when it's raining outside. We have such a large collection of science kits that we'll be discussing them in more than one post. Click on the kit titles to go to our catalog and place a hold.
Have your children check out our FIELD TRIP PACK before you visit
Edwardsville’s Watershed Nature Center this spring and summer! They can use the Audobon bird call to speak
to the birds, and then use the bird song identifier to see who is talking back
to them. The field trip kit includes two
Bushnell binoculars, so they can stealthily scope out the wildlife from a distance. The
magnifying glasses, dip net, observation container with magnifying lid, insect
viewing cubes – and more! – will make your trip an exciting hands-on adventure
for the whole family.
This model contains 31 fully detachable organs and body parts and features a transparent cutaway to show internal structures.
