Product DescriptionGrade Lvls: PreK-2
Sammy's Science House introduces and builds essential early science and thinking skills while engaging young students with five fun-filled activities. Students sort names of plants, animals, and minerals at the Sorting Station, construct toys and machines in the Workshop, learn about animal habitats at Acorn Pond, and manipulate weather variables with the Weather Machine. Sammy also offers interactive, creative activities such as Make-A-Movie, where students arrange pictures in sequence to understand how multiple parts create a whole.
