As any parent homeschooling a young student knows all too well, finding fun science experiments that can be conducted safely and affordably at home while also conveying important scientific concepts isn’t easy.
All too often, home experiments require the purchase of materials or supplies that families don’t have readily available. In other cases, the experiments don’t provide avenues for further reading or additional experimentation.
Well, help is on the way, thanks to Yale’s Franke Program in Science and the Humanities, with an assist from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
