I have a 7 year old son who loves science.  It is the first thing he asks to do for school daily.  He wants to do experiments and hands-on activities all the time.  I was looking for a science curriculum that was easy to use and supplied the materials for the experiments.  I do not like to hunt down materials for science experiments.  It is so much easier if it all come in a kit or package.  The Young Scientist Club is a great science curriculum for ages 5-12 years old.  They even have some science kits that are for the preschool age kids.  Each kit comes with all the materials you will need to do the experiments.  Sometimes there are common materials from your kitchen or home that they require, but rarely do I need to go buy something. They do an excellent job of explaining different science concepts to young children and each kit has 4 or 5 experiments per subject that they are teaching.   When you order the young scientist club sets you get 3 kits per box that they send you.  The cost is $24.99 per set that you buy which includes 3 kits and up to a dozen or more experiments.  This is ideal for my son who can’t seem to get enough of the hands-on activities.  This is a great curriculum to develop a love of science in the elementary grades.  You can find the Young Scientist Club at theyoungscientistclub.com.
