Psychology for Kids II: 40 Fun Experiments That Help You Learn about Others (Self-Help for Kids Series)
Gr. 4^-6. A follow-up toPsychology for Kids(1990), which helps children learn about their own behavior, this book explores why others behave as they do. People, paper and pencils, and a copy machine to reproduce written tests are the principal requirements of the 40 experiments, which investigate such things as gender differences, learning skills, perception, and logic. Kincher adds a sprinkling of classic concepts and terms and guidelines for interpretation. She also makes it clear that the experiments aren't rigorously scientific, just fun and challenging. A great change from the usual "science experiment" book, this will leave some kids absolutely fascinated.Stephanie Zvirin
