At Costco they were selling a Kingergarten Jumbo Workbook by DK for approximately $11. The Jumbo book ended up containing all 5 of the DK workbooks for kindergartners. I think this book would be perfect for a 4-5 year old. Though some of the vocabulary I think is more 1st-2nd grade like "deciduous." But its good for little ones to be exposed to those science words early so that is not necessarily a bad thing. I also felt that this book was not redundant with the pre-school version. I suggest you complete both books.The science section has a title page with a hand making a shadow dog puppet, a table of contents, followed by each worksheet. All images are in black and white so they can be colored, but the pages do include some color on the borders and edges - in my copy its a orangy-yellow. The top of each worksheet has a fact to read and below it some sort of interactive question/instructions. Some of the facts really need more teaching / images to ensure the kid is actually understanding and learning the info... but at least all of the interactive question/instructions seem to connect to the fact. I just want to point out that a seal is a mammal not a fish (which is confusing to most kids). The ecosystem stuff can also aligned well with the geography workbook.The science section covers: gardening, plants, ecosystems, what animals eat, senses, pets, motion, light, rainbows, states of matter, and changing physical states. The book also contains experiments like testing the needs of plants, observing with our senses, making shadow puppets, making a rainbow, and observing the different states of matter.
