“But Sally, what do you do for science? All I hear you talking about is great books, good literature. Do you just neglect that area in your children’s lives?”

I think when I first started home educating, I did not realize there were so many good sources, amazing books written about creation, design, intricate and interesting facts about weather, seasons, molecules, the design of atoms, bacteria, snowflakes, trees, photosynthesis and so much more. I had the illusion that science was only in text books.

Today, I am back with my friends talking about science with older children today. (Refer to the previous science podcast for younger reads for children. It is so much fun. I learned so much by guiding my children through these subjects—my own personal favorite being physics.

Exploring science with your older children can be just as exciting as discovering God’s amazing creation with the younger ones. You don’t have to limit yourself to traditional areas of study or textbooks with your teens. Discover what they are interested in, and guide them as they ask questions and research topics of interest. We share several resources with you for studying science in the older years. Biographies, historical fiction, survival stories, amazing science photograph books, are all resources for awaking wonder in your older children.
