If you’re looking for some homeschool fun science books for a change of a pace or if you’re like us and have moved away from boring science text books, check out some of these resources for homeschooling multiple ages.

3 Less-Known and Irresistible Homeschool Hands-on Science Books for teaching multiple ages @ Tina's Dynamic Homeschool Plus

Easy Hands-on Homeschool Science for Multiple Ages

Too, I think you can include your older kids with a lot of these activities.

One/ Check out Draw Plus Science.

If you have a kid that would prefer to draw or do art than science, then you’ll love Draw Plus Science.

Wishing that my boys were still little, this would make a great addition to any science or unit study. What I love about the book is that it’s more than a drawing curriculum, it has plenty of scientific background.

Especially if you have a science hater, this would win him over because it covers science in broad strokes. Do some art, do some science and have fun at the same time.

Now, it does mention Darwin but it only talks about the beaks being different on finches. But it mentions other scientists too.

If you want to cover art and homeschool science, this book is a tiny treasure.

Two/ Check out Science Experiments – Biology, General Science and Nature, Volume 1: Activities Made at Home (Science Experiments in a Bag)

This book is more my style of science, little to no mess.

All 20- 25 activities are done in a bag and require common items found at home.

Activities like how do seeds grow and why is the sky is blue to where to mountains come from makes for engaging science exploration.

Too, it says the experiments are for ages 3 to 10 so the best part of all of these resources are that they can be done with multiple ages of children.

Three/ Check out Candy Experiments 2.

One advantage we have over public school when we do science is that we can do science activities that include food or better yet candy.

Though the book is all about using candy for science and making it disappear, I’m sure it wouldn’t hurt if your kids had a bite or two as they learned.

This book is for ages 7 to 10 though older kids will love it too.

Get out of a science rut and try something fun and engaging. Besides science is always suppose to be hands-on and I love sharing newer gems with you when I find them.
