This illustrated collection of over 80 tricks, stunts and puzzles teaches children about the science of water, air, fire, heat, gravity, motion and inertia, friction, magnetism, electricity, sound, light, sensory illusions, and probability. Examples of the tricks include - putting matches in a bottle of water and watching them sink or rise, making an egg somersault, keeping a balloon inflated with its "mouth" open and lighting one match with the "wrong end" of another without touching it. A symbol is used to indicate where parental assistance is required.
