| What are LiteraSci for Families products?
LiteraSci for Families adapts the science and literacy lessons for use in your home. Each activity works well with children from 3 to 8 years old, so you can easily include children of different ages.
Each LiteraSci Quick and Fun activity guide contains instructions for doing a science activity with your child, as well as suggestions to extend learning through reading and web resources.
LiteraSci Science and Stories Kits contain a science activity guide, all the materials you need to carry out the activity, and a children’s book related to the science activity.

What kinds of activities are included in LiteraSci for Families?
Activities focus on the everyday world so your child will plant seeds, blow bubbles, mix colors, watch puddles disappear and “fish” with magnets.
Children learn about the many uses of writing as they keep a journal to record how their plants grow, label the print a bubble makes, or chart the distances a fan blows objects.
What’s special about LiteraSci for Families activities?
LiteraSci activities are research based. Children’s vocabulary, reading skills and science knowledge all increase.
I’m not a teacher. Can I do LiteraSci on my own?
Products contain detailed, easy-to-follow instructions for doing the activities with your children. You will find it easy to involve your children in hands-on science, and you will be surprised by how quickly they learn.
How much time will I need to do LiteraSci with my child?
Most activities take about 30 minutes. Children love the science activities and often ask to repeat them, so you may want to plan for more time, or plan another day.
How can I get the materials I need to do LiteraSci for Families activities?
Activities use easily found materials such as food coloring, seeds, sponges, straws and ping-pong balls. LiteraSci Science and Stories kits include both the books and the materials needed for the science activities.
How much do LiteraSci for Families products cost?
LiteraSci for Families products are priced for young families and prices vary from $2 to $20. You can place order directly on our website.
