This site illustrates how to make toys, using everyday materials, to demonstrate scientific principles.

News items—such as the decline of the population of honeybees and how forensic science is used to solve crimes—are explained with children in mind. The site is more appropriate for Upper Key Stage Two pupils although younger children can benefit from it with some adult interpretation

What’s even better is the large variety of games and craft activities younger children get to choose from. They can learn at the same time as having fun!
Most major museums have children’s sections on their websites, and this one is definitely one of the most interactive ones out there. There are games and fact files linked with current exhibitions, which makes the information relevant and up-to-date. Alongside this children can virtually visit the museums via the ‘Antcam’ and ‘Flesh eating beetlecam’- cool or what? A brilliant educational resource!
