Presto Change-O (new: $30) played once, complete, asking $15ppd
This is a fun game! We just have 3 closets full of games and decided to part with this one. Excellent game for learning to count with money/make change, etc. And of course, what kid doesn't love play money? :)
Presto Change-O Game Description:
Learn to make change quickly - Like magic! Children learn to make change,
save money and start a business.
With each move around the Presto Change-O game board,
students are directed to either pay or receive money and make change.
Each transaction in this fast -paced game is designed to help kids learn
to make change quickly and confidently - just like magic!
Thames & Kosmos - Milestones in Science
(New: $80), Asking $45ppd, very nice condition
My oldest only did 2 of the 100 experiments in this kit - the camera, and the spectroscope
The book has a small crease on the upper right corner (it came that way).
This is a great kit for those who don't have the "real" materials available. We are a big science family and have a lot of these things available or the kids choose to make them on their own in the workshop.
The 100 Most Significant Experiments and Discoveries of All Time
Embark on an active research expedition through the history of science and technology. Learn about famous scientists and inventors, like Archimedes, Copernicus, Einstein, Watt, and Darwin, as you reproduce their ground-breaking experiments. Read about each scientist and their times, what they did and how they did it, and then see it yourself firsthand! From the Stone Age to modern times, the history of science comes to life in front of you in this tangible, hands-on format. This comprehensive kit covers the accomplishments of over 140 scientists and civilizations.
Dive into this clever book-shaped box and immerse yourself in the studies that enthralled the brightest scientific minds that ever lived. As you conduct experiments with the more than 94 pieces included, your workspace will quickly come to resemble the labs and workshops of these legendary scientists.
Young historians and scientists alike will be captivated by this overview of the history of science. In addition to instructions for the experiments, the 96-page, full-color experiment book contains a wealth of interesting historical information, giving context to the scientists and their work. The book is beautifully designed to playfully resemble a scientist’s lab journal from the past. Ages 10 and up.
Nine chapters:
• Light, Colors, and Sound
• Heat, Steam, and Engines
• Magnetism and Electricity
• Communication and Microelectronics
• Forces
• Life
• Atoms and Molecules
• Stars and Planets
