From the Publisher:

Janice VanCleave's popular experiment books are now available for children aged 4-7. This book teaches children to learn about math in a fun, intriguing way. Each topic is introduced with a simple "I Wonder" question that a young child might ask such as "How can I make a Valentine?" or "How tall am I" or "How do you make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich?" Experiments are designed so the adult helper gets all the information he or she needs to explain the process to the child, and then helps the child perform the experiment's simple steps. Two-color illustrations and an oversize format make the book easy for young children to use.
