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.

Includes: weather station base, weather vane, rain gauge, thermometer, anemometer, compass, cloud chart with interactive weather tracker, and fold-out illustrated activity guide with 5 activities.


MY KIDS CHECK IT EVERY MORNING! My kids LOVE this weather lab! They set it up out on the back deck and check the rain gage and temperature every morning. When it rains, they run out while it's raining to check the rain gage multiple times during the storm. This weather station has made them more aware of and interested in what's going on with the weather. The materials seem robust; it's been sitting on our deck for a few months now without problems.
