Galileo for Kids - Richard Panchyk
This title is intended for ages 4-8. Children will learn how Galileo's revolutionary discoveries and sometimes controversial theories changed his world and laid the groundwork for modern astronomy and physics. Galileo, one of history's best-known scientists, is introduced in this illuminating activity book.
Activities allow children to try some of his theories on their own, with experiments that include playing with gravity and motion, making a pendulum, observing the moon, and painting with light and shadow. This book will inspire kids to be stargazers and future astronauts or scientists as they discover Galileo's life and work. Along with the scientific aspects of Galileo's life, his passion for music and art are discussed and exemplified by period engravings, maps, and prints.
A time line, glossary, and listings of major science museums, planetariums, and web sites for further exploration complement this activity book.
