What homeschoolers say about Janice VanCleave
Homeschoolers appreciate Janice VanCleave's science experiment books for their hands-on, approachable experiments that engage kids in learning scientific concepts. The experiments are generally straightforward and use common household materials, making them accessible and budget-friendly. Many parents find the instructions clear and the activities effective for sparking curiosity. However, some note that the experiments can be somewhat simplistic or repetitive for older or more advanced students, and the books may lack in-depth scientific explanations. Overall, these resources are valued as fun supplements rather than comprehensive science curricula.
