About the Book
All aspects of science, the why, what and how are important. However, science can be understood much better if it is learnt in context and with a frame of reference. An effective frame of reference for a child is his or her own “self”, in context of his or her interaction with their real and abstract world. This book describes various permutations and combinations of this thinking with the intention of helping young kids between the ages of 4-12 years learn and enjoy science. Thoughts and ideas described in this book are based on personal learning experiences both as a scientist and as a parent trying to the nurture love for science in her kids. While this book is not a “where to” or “how to” guide to learn more science, it does give suggestions on “how to” approach scientific learning and “where to” start. The book also emphasizes the importance of nurturing scientific thinking in 21st century children not just for academic success and career options, builds character.
