Most kids free from their exams now are likely making summer vacation outing plans or maybe joining a summer camp. They are sure to have great fun days ahead but those who haven’t planned anything yet, there is an interesting site offering great science fun for at least a few days. Science fun for everyone is a website dedicated to providing Earth’s dwellers with great material to develop an interest in science, gain self-confidence and foster a new appreciation for the beautiful world we are living in!

The main menu is at the top centre where visitors can dig into ‘School’ with links to various schools taking part in site provided programmes; in ‘Parents’ section, parents are encouraged to make their children part of the camps, etc. However, the most interesting section is the ‘Kids Zone’, where kids can read jokes, trivia and learn to experiment with many easily available things at home.

I was literally amazed to know the very easy way to make sculpture out of milk, yes, milk! And of course there are many other fun experiments to indulge in, like crystal candy, layers of liquid, milk art, dancing liquid, etc., which you should check out yourself.

The news section focuses on science news from the schools that have participated in any science activities and submitted their work to the site.

No doubt, the site is useful for visitors of all ages, but it would be injustice if we talk only about the interesting information it provides and not about its beautiful layout. Science fun for everyone is truly a beautiful site; it doesn’t only appeals to the eye with its catching colours and easy language, but you will also love the images of animals peeking from the site’s interface.

While going through the interesting section, you can read random mindboggling facts about weather, animals and insects at the left panel. So it’s all about science around us.

Have fun with science this weekend!
