How can you consistently pull off hands-on tinkering with kids? How do you deal with questions that you can't answer? How do you know if tinkering kids are learning anything or not? Is there a line between fooling around with real stuff and learning?
The idea of learning through tinkering is not so radical. From the dawn of time, whenever humanity has wanted to know more, we have achieved it most effectively by getting our hands dirty and making careful observations of real stuff.
Make: Tinkering (Kids Learn by Making Stuff) lets you discover how, why--and even what it is--to tinker and tinker well. Author Curt Gabrielson draws on more than 20 years of experience doing hands-on science to facilitate tinkering: learning science while fooling around with real things.
This book shows you how to make:
- A drum set from plastic bottles, tape, and shrink-wrap
- Magnetic toys that dance, sway, and amaze
- Catapults, ball launchers, and table-top basketball
- A battery-powered magic wand and a steadiness game (don't touch the sides!)
- Chemical reactions with household items
- Models of bones and tendons that work like real arms and ankles
- Spin art machine and a hovercraft from a paper plate!
- Lifelong learners hungry for their next genuine experience

Review This book is terrific! The philosophy couldn't have been better stated. Curt writes beautifully; it's very readable and his overall message is indisputably valuable, especially in these times of electronic gadgets. As the book points out, in recent years we find our kids can't even tie their shoes! Thus, in order to truly learn science, they need access to these sorts of hands-on opportunities more than ever. So hooray for the very valuable notion of community science workshops, such as have been pioneered in California!Paul Hewitt, Author of Conceptual Physics

The book is written for beginners and, although it caters for educators, it was very useful and interesting for me as a parent.
0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great book for your inventors! By C. Becker First of all, the contents of the book look awesome. There are tons of projects with a good range of difficulty. I believe it would be a great book for any kid (or adult!) who likes 'tinkering' and building random projects. There are very detailed descriptions of the projects to explain how everything works, and how it relates to the real world.One thing to note, is that I was expecting a bit more pictures, and less words. If purchasing for a younger child, just know that they will likely need some adult assistance with the projects.The one negative comment I have is in the quality of the print. The book I received is completely misshapen. The Right side edge is roughly a quarter of an inch larger than the left side. The printing on EVERY page is crooked, including the cover. It's like it was printed in the basement with consumer level equipment. Or the pages were cut out by a child. That's the only reason I've deducted 1 star from my review.... Although I'm still not convinced it's worth subtracting an entire star. But definitely worth noting.Would this stop me from purchasing the book? Not at all. It's the quality of the content that is really important. But for the price... I'd expect better quality from the publisher.
