Customer Review:
I used this to teach my Webelos Scouts (age 10) how electricity works and make things go. They mostly had fun using the fan to make horrible noises cutting pieces of paper, but they got the point of the experiment.
Requires fine motor skills; may be difficult for some to do without adult help. | 5.0 / 5.0

This book has all the ins and outs of the history of electricity, however, it is more for older children, and adults as well. My 4 year old loves lights and electrical things, but he didn't get a kick out of this book, even when reading it over with me. Mostly historical information. | 4.5 / 5.0

This book is not generally advertised as being told from a Christian perspective and published by a Christian company. That information should be more effectively advertised.
