Summary of Janice VanCleave's Microscopes and Magnifying Lenses: Mind-boggling Chemistry and Biology Experiments You Can Turn Into Science Fair Projects

  • Why does a water drop magnify?
  • How do crystals form?
  • What does the inside of a seed look like?

Janice VanCleave's Microscopes and Magnifying Lenses includes 20 simple and fun experiments that allow you to discover the answers to these and many other questions, plus dozens of suggestions on how to develop your own science fair projects.

Grow penicillium mold in apple cider, compare your own and your friend's fingerprints, and investigate the lives of microscopic water fleas, all with either a microscope or simple magnifying lens. All experiments use inexpensive materials and involve a minimum of preparation and clean up.

Children ages 8-12
