Your child will learn about the properties of different materials the whole way through primary school, in increasingly complex detail.
In this section of the site you'll find material worksheets to try at home with your child, such as sorting materials into sets, materials to build a house, and comparing matrials. Why not go on a materials treasure hunt?
You'll find even more science experiments to bring out the little Einstein in your child in our Experiments and science fun pack.
