Mr. C.

Great short course — my 12-year-old liked how the stories tied into the experiments. The format of five 55-minute lessons across two weeks worked well for us and kept the momentum going.

Really impressed. The reading-based approach using Physics Fairytales made scientific ideas accessible and the simple at-home demonstrations kept my 8-year-old engaged every day. Five lessons per week for two weeks felt like a concentrated, fun burst of learning and the 55-minute sessions were just the right length for hands-on activities and discussion.

Disappointed — my 11-year-old lost interest quickly and the 55-minute sessions were too long for him over the two-week course.

There were some fun simple experiments that held my child's interest, but five lessons per week at 55 minutes felt like too much for an 8-year-old. We ended up skipping a few sessions because the schedule was hard to keep up with.
