“Enchanting Earth Science” by Lakshmi Narayani is a great collection of various facts and learning activities designed to help children learn more about different types of earth science. There are six topics that are included in this book: the seasons, the solar system, moon phases, water cycle, rock cycle and various landforms. Each of the sections begins with a song about the topic, which is “catchy” and fun for children to read aloud. A facts sheet is the next, which is a page of numerous facts important for children to learn. Following this are various types of activities designed to help reinforce the facts and help children to have fun while still learning. Some of the types of activities included are coloring sheets, word search puzzles, diagrams to label and quizzes.

This is an excellent resource to use with children to introduce basic earth science topics and facts. The information is simple and straight-forward so that children can easily grasp and understand what is being shared. The terms and facts are written at a level that children can understand, but also shared in a way that the child will want to learn. The variety of activities and types of activities are great as they will hold a child’s interest and not be seen as being work, but a fun learning activity. I love the layout of the book as it is easily divided into sections and each topic can be easily used over the course of a week or two to enhance the study of each topic.
