Book Review: Stay Curious and Keep Exploring (x2)
I grew up with Mr. Wizard as my science icon on TV, and I still have a copy of his Supermarket Science book (my daughter was completely unimpressed).
Emily Calandrelli may be this generation’s Mr. Wizard. She an MIT engineer and host of Emily’s Wonder Lab and Xploration Outer Space, as well as the author of two books full of science experiments kids can do at home, mostly with items you might already have in the house.
Stay Curious and Keep Exploring (published 2022, 168 pages, hardcover, 50 experiments, suggested retail price $22.95) features 50 projects on various themes: our of this world science, spooky science, things that glow, egg science, birthday science creations, magic tricks, kitchen science, experiments with a high potential to get messy. physics projects and ice experiments.
A few examples: magnetic slime, melting foam with acetone, making glow in the dark paint, bouncing rainbow eggs, LED birthday cards, a self-filling balloon, a cookie baking experiment, horse toothpaste and broomstick balancing. These silly sounding projects are often tied to real-world lessons about how things work, such as why is it so hard to get ketchup out of a bottle, why do our fingers get wrinkly in the bath, and why does it take so long for water to boil.
Kids are encouraged to ask questions, make hypotheses and take notes in the book as they learn.
In addition to the experiments there are mini profiles of women is STEM through history, fun facts and ideas for changing up the experiments. There are also reference tables and a glossary in the back for any terms you don’t know.
The second book, Stay Curious and Keep Exploring Next Level (published 2024, 176 pages, hardcover, 50 experiments, suggested retail price $22.95) continues on the theme with bigger, bolder, messier projects in superhero science, scary science, bubbles, water, outdoor experiments, things that glow, science to do with friends, food science, science in color and projects related to the human body.
Here you’ll find fun projects like floating coins, zombie ping-pong balls, unpoppable bubbles, sticky water, egg geodes, exploding soda, secret notes, and how to extract strawberry DNA, among other things.
This book also includes profiles of people in STEM you’ll want to know and a glossary, but this one also has a shopping list to make stocking your science experiment pantry that much easier.
Either or both of these books would be great to gift to a curious kiddo or their parents (or grandparents!) who want to do some fun and messy learning with their kiddos.

With good looking style,diverse styles,these are the reasons why many women rush for shop alloy jewelry. Many people begin to feel: Although gold, platinum and gold jewelry worth money and show your taste, but “all are made with the same style, without too many choices”, something regret is more than extravagance, fashion.
Compared to platinum, gold which with slightly monotonous template style, alloy jewellery with “personality looks” naturally became a major selling point, especially with the clothes, full play its characteristics, alloy jewelry more choice use yellow copper,14K gold,etc., and then with artificial crystal, shell, pearl, exquisitely crafted, using electroplating, painting and other craft, made of a variety of shapes jewelry, alloy jewelry material is not precious as the gold, platinum. However, ductility and hardness of the metal itself are more ideal, and therefore to create a bit more suitable for fashion and new wave of products.
Material is not rare, which does not prevent alloy jewelry scoring in the high-end jewelry market. Some brand jewelry say they do not rely on rare but on style and design into the market. Many brands are advertised as “handmade, international designed,” and a small quantity of each kind of style, the product rarely “Crash” to meet the individual needs of women.
Hand, international, limited edition and other words would have a negligible effect to raise the jewelry for the price. It is understood that the Alloy Necklaces store counter sales price of more than one thousand yuan at the start, with the crystal and so on, prices have to rise to three thousand yuan is not expensive. Even small pieces of accessories, earrings, mobile phone chain, one should also cost hundreds yuan.
