In our July issue , we ran an article called Cool Science for Hot Summer Days offering simple ways to infuse your summer fun with scientific exploration. In our upcoming September issue, we’re featuring an Ages & Stages article about raising kids who are scientifically literate. (Are you sensing a theme?) It’s not that we think all kids should aspire to have careers in science. It’s just that we think all kids (and all adults!) should be enthusiastic about exploring the world and drawing their own, well-reasoned conclusions. How have you and your kids explored the world this summer? Stargazing? Bird and/or bug watching? Cooking? Gardening? It’s all summer science! There’s still time for more! If you need inspiration, check out these three Summer Science Experiments from Mad Science of Portland and Vancouver. And if you have any fun family science activities your family loves, please share them below!
