So what's a Science Snack?
Since the museum opened in 1969, teachers from the San Francisco Bay
Area have brought their classes on field trips to the Exploratorium.
When we began putting this book together, we decided to do just the
opposite: We wanted to take the exhibits to the kids.
For three years, nearly one hundred teachers worked with staff members
to create scaled-down versions of Exploratorium exhibits. The results
were dozens of exciting "Snacks" --- miniature science exhibits that
teachers could make using common, inexpensive, easily available
materials. By using Snacks in their classrooms, teachers can climb out
of the textbooks and join their students in discovering science for themselves.
