A traditional way to read the temperature and predict the weather.
Storm Glass - Once used by seafarers to predict oncoming storms, the storm glass barometer came into general use in the early 1700's, and responds to atmospheric fluctuations to forecast the weather. Admiral Robert Fitzroy conducted a detailed study of this instrument between 1834 and 1836.
Galileo Thermometer - In 1593, Galileo Galilei discovered that the density of liquids reacts predictably to changes in temperature. He invented a device that allowed temperature variations to be measured.

About this kit:
What is "Static Electricity"? It seems that many people are aware of the concept but don't really know how to scientifically explain it. Kids experimenting with this "Crazy Scientist Lab" kit will know everything there is to know about static electricity and enjoy amazing tricks and experiments! In this science kit, kids will be exposed to the fascinating world of invisible atoms that are all around us, some with electrical particles that create static electricity in certain objects. Using this electrical current, we will perform really cool experiments such as separating salt and pepper grains, sticking a balloon to the wall using electricity, building flying saucers and an electroscope, making Styrofoam balls dance and many more exciting experiments.
This science kit comes equipped with all the necessary equipment excluding some common household items. It includes a clear guide accompanied with photos of the experiments steps as well as fascinating scientific explanations and facts.

Begin a lifetime of scientific investigation and understanding with 29 fun experiments in five key areas: nature, physics, chemistry, air, and water.
Learn what plants need in order to grow, observe the clouds, see how water climbs, watch plants sweat, and investigate plant propagation. Discover how a magnifying glass enlarges, how colours mix, how static electricity attracts, how sundials tell time, and how a motion picture works. Investigate air pressure, air flow, hovercraft, paper airplanes, and suction. Write secret messages, float a paper clip, blow super bubbles, observe capillary action, and test displacement. Build a soap-driven boat, mix oil and water, experiment with evaporation, paint with sugar, and watch colours separate.
With a 48-page illustrated guidebook, Stepping into Science teaches science fundamentals with step-by-step, hands-on experiments, while also introducing children to the scientific method itself.
