You Track it Weather Lab

Young meteorologists will love learning the science behind weather — from what makes the wind blow, to what different types of clouds mean, to how snowflakes are formed. You-Track-It Weather Lab includes real weather-tracking equipment. In the foldout activity guide, children can read all about the extremes of our planet as they compare hurricanes to tornadoes, and discover the connection between lightning to thunder. Five experiments take them from challenging their weatherman to predicting the weather using crickets! The you-take-it cloud chart and interactive weather tracker lets kids record wind speed, temperature, wind direction, and cloud type so they can write the details in their weather journal when they get home.
