 | Newton's Apple Kits: Newton UndercoverClick for detailsBased on the television show Newton's Apple, this science kit involves you in a case that unfolds in the accompanying booklet. Your partner is Science Agent Newton, a.k.a. "Agent 3.14159," or "Pi." (He's the guy with an apple-shaped dent in his head.) Can you uncover the mystery of what's going on in the lab of "the rotten Dr. Pew Trassene"? Don't worry: Pi explains everything very scientifically, even the action of a simple water pistol (included). He sounds less like an English gentleman scientist than a Dashiell Hammett sort of private eye--"We're off like a dirty shirt to Pew Trassene's lab..."--but proves to be an able crime-cracking partner. The case you solve involves a little of everything, including encryption, fingerprinting, clever stuff with mirrors, the relationship between electricity and magnetism, and your very own bacteria farm. There is a list of "Special Issue" (i.e., included) and "U-Get-It" materials. (Ages 8 and older, adult supervision required) |
