Science: Atoms and their parts

Christian Kids Explore Chemistry Lessons 6 through 8

There are many ways to model atoms.  We’re going to do the cookie models on page 67.  Basically you bake a plain cookie and use 3 different candies (M&M’s suggested) to add protons, neutrons, and electrons.

On a side note: My favorite library book so far for explaining chemistry to kids is Basher Science: Chemistry: Getting a Big Reaction.
