Let your curious kiddo time-travel through the world of science—ancient-style!
Science in the Ancient World ditches dry facts and drops your child right into the sandals of natural philosophers from 600 BC to the 1500s. This course doesn't just teach what these ancient thinkers got right—it also highlights their blunders, showing your child that even the greats made mistakes. And that? That's a pretty freeing thing to learn early on.
Your young scientist will explore 90 hours of wonder, with 35 of those hours spent getting hands-on. Every single lesson has an experiment or activity—whether he uses candy to demonstrate what Democritus got wrong about atoms or investigates why Hippocrates wanted wine on bandages. He'll learn about atoms, how sound travels, what makes levers so clever, how plants grow, why magnets attract, how friction works, and how a scientist's faith can fuel his curiosity.
No snoozy textbooks here. The colorful hardcover is packed with full-page illustrations and digestible lessons that keep your wiggler engaged. Each lesson is just a few pages long and ends with tiered questions for younger, older, and oldest students—perfect for family-style learning across grades.
You'll also get the Helps & Hints book, full of answers and explanations that make your teaching life smoother. Testing isn't the focus, but if it helps your family, full tests and solutions are included. And to make experiments even easier, there's an optional lab kit with nearly every hard-to-find supply packed and ready to go—no last-minute runs for baking soda and obscure doohickeys.
Oh, and this series? After Science in the Beginning wowed homeschoolers, this follow-up picks up the torch and runs with it—straight through ancient discoveries and divine design. Berean Science teaches science through a Christian lens and historical timeline, connecting kids to the brilliance of God's creation one "aha!" at a time.
Whether your child is just dipping his toes into atoms or imagining himself scribbling backward in Leonardo's notebooks, Science in the Ancient World is a joyful, jam-packed journey that builds both knowledge and wonder.
