Description
A very simple series that introduces the first concepts that surround the sciences. The text combines statements and questions in such a way that develops a child's understanding of science as well as the language related to it. It also builds confidence by helping children appreciate the science they already know. Also included in the text are simple experiments and exercises, which promote skills in sorting and handling data. The books are illustrated with full-colour photographs. Keeping Healthy looks at the four main areas of healthy living: food, exercise, keeping clean and sleep.
