A "real" good way to learn science for classical kids!

Product: R.E.A.L. Science
Subject: Science
Levels Used: Level 1: Life science

Dates Used: 2007, current (we did human body last year, currently doing plants and planning for animals later this fall)

Likes: So very easy to understand, especially for someone who does not usually "get" science (that would be me). Great hands-on experiments, such as creating a model of blood using red-hot candies, dried lima beans, dried lentils and corn syrup (see, I still remember what everything stands for as do the kids!). Has a good list of resources to add to the study if you want.

Dislikes: Some experiments take more preparation time than I have to give or follow the calendar (such as needing to get some worms-- better not be winter!).
