Thames & Kosmos Botany: Experimental Greenhouse
Budding botanists will love getting their hands dirty with this unique biological science experiment kit. Kids will learn all about plants and seeds while running experiments in this specially designed botanical laboratory with greenhouse domes. They get to assemble the domed greenhouses, complete with thermometers and ventilation. Construct automatic watering systems so plants don't go thirsty or grow beans, cress, and zinnia flowers to learn how they need different things.
Get to Know:
Students can experiment with plant cells and capillary action to learn how roots work to transport water and nutrients throughout a plant. Kids can also conduct experiments that demonstrate how plants need water, light, and heat to grow.
Discover the strength of a bean and how leaves sweat. Then, see why the grass grows back after it is cut and how cuttings can grow roots. And, you could even germinate fruit and vegetable plants from the seeds in your kitchen.
More Information:
Children can also grow a flower garden, make tiny plaster bugs to decorate their garden, collect seeds with their socks, grow a funny grass head, make leaf and bark rubbings, or learn how they can force some budded branches to bloom in the winter.
With a 48-page, full-color illustrated guidebook, this kit helps you illustrate botany fundamentals with step-by-step instructions for all these hands-on experiments as well as growing information for many common plants.
