Welcome to Litsy!

Today is reading day, but yesterday was rocket day, shooting a water rocket with our granddaughter. The tagged book is in her library, as is Quantum Physics for Babies by the same author. Really cute, with a lot of good information. I‘m not sure how much she‘s getting out of them yet, but I‘m learning a lot while reading with her😄

On the last leg of our trip, and spent the night with our son and his family. I discovered that our granddaughter‘s morning routine starts with a book, even before diaper change. This morning‘s reading was General Relativity for Babies, with her dad.

I was excited for this book. And then I was SO DISAPPOINTED.

It explains separate concepts well enough, but doesn't tie them together. Eric loves and understands physics and he wasn't a fan of this either.

The kids wanted to take a walk around the park. Naturally we wound up at the library where we found science books written just for me. #BoardBooks

Guys, how cute are these? I'm so excited for my indie bookstore haul today!

Another cute science board book for little ones.

What did I just read? Mass, space, black holes, gravitational waves... I'm not really sure, but it is a cute way to introduce anyone, not just babies, to the key concepts of relativity.

I was so surprised to come scrips this at work last night. It actually is, yes, an explanation of general relativity broken down into basic terms. To be honest, even as an adult I have to stop and think about it to "get" it, but I love that this exists and know some parents who could make great use of it.

I love a book that can take a complicated element and break it down to its basic form. This book does exactly that. Now for people who haven't studied physics it still may not make complete sense but upon additional reading it will become more clear. This book is a great way to start kids on understanding complex ideas and concepts. Now for fun factor. That is missing, but it's also not needed.
