Bedtime Science Stories My Science Education Blog

I started a science education blog called: Bedtime Science Stories. Here is a little excerpt from my first post: Can and should a 3 year old girl be into science?


I have a 3 year old daughter that has take a bit of an interest in science. We have been talking about science when I put her to bed at night.


Last Sunday I discovered a new book called Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother by Amy Chua, who is a law professor at Yale. She is using extreme methods to push her 2 daughters to academic excellence. They had to be the best in their class in everything except drama and physical education. Math was a topic that she really drilled them in. Just reading the back cover sent me into a rage; so much that I decided to start a new blog: Bedtime Science Stories, just to get my anger out.

Science should not be an elite activity. Making it very competitive will make a new generation of kids hate math and science. Understanding our world is worthwhile activity even if you are not the best in your class.

It's not a bad idea to expose kids to things like science early. The catch is, they might fall asleep before they get into their Hatley pyjamas if you overdo it. Doing things gradually is the name of the game here.

She does not really understand too much, but she thinks as herself as somebody that is excited about science. Sometimes she asks for science books at bedtime a lot of time for other books.
