Clearly explained engineering concepts and fun, simple projects give kids ages 7-9 the chance to put their STEAM knowledge to the test!Teach kids to think like an engineer! The engaging projects in this book will encourage kids to investigate using items from around the house.

In How to Be an Engineer, the emphasis is on inspiring kids, which means less time at a computer and more time exploring in the real world.
