The Best Science Websites and Resources

Here at Science Sparks we know it can be tricky to find what you need on the internet, so we’ve compiled a list of the best science websites and resources from around the web. These are all perfect for science at home and science at school.

Science Sparks – Making science fun for kids

Firstly, I would love you to take a look around Science Sparks. It’s pretty much just me creating and writing everything up and I’ve put my heart and soul into it over the years. Our collection of fairy tale experiments is one of my favourite posts. You might also like our list of 10 science experiments every child needs to try at least once or these easy science and STEM challenge cards.
