5A great guide for projects with your kids  Mar 09, 2008
Some of the stuff in here is dangerous, but kids will never respect danger if they don't experience a little firsthand. The projects in the book are a lot of fun and can teach you a lot about physics and chemistry.

4A Man Book  Feb 08, 2008
This book seems to be a common book for the men in my life, old and young. It provides the basics on items that guys enjoy learning about and gets the creative ideas flowing into more research and "improvements." This would make a good gift for any guy that enjoys a good "boom!" Note to wives: Trips to hardware store are going to happen. While there, grab eye and ear protection for your kids. They'll enjoy getting into the fun of the learning in the projects.

Nothing particularly creative in that book that anybody with some common sense wouldn't come up with.

5Just Plain Fun  Apr 24, 2007
Being a parent and a science teacher, I really love this book. It takes me back to my younger years when it was fun to launch anything more than 10 feet and still have all of your hair intact. What fun this book is! Gurstelle is great!
