Reviews:

From Toy Directory Monthly
[Teaching Physics with Toys] doesn’t just direct experiments but explains how to approach physics. The activity model of the scientific inquiry process and the experiment planning guides were very useful. Having the forms available on a CD-ROM made printing copies a breeze.
