I will probably be soundly booed for saying this, but it
is your kid's project and not yours. If you hate science fair projects, then make her do it herself.
Have to say we were never required to do science fair projects when I was a kid. There was a science fair every year, but it was more of an extracurricular thing that only the science geeks did.
That would be great if she could! What is it a kid can do for themselves and not to be made to look a fool?? I'm trying to keep it practical and not expensive...and, she will be doing the work...you will not see me weighing a slimy toad on a scale! And, as a mom, I have to say I have secretly detested many of these types of projects...espec cake decorating in 4H...but, that is what mom's are supp to do I think. :) Be there to help! I do feel so sorry for the kids that have NO help at home and I am sure this year there will be many...it is too sad! You all are full of great ideas!! She is already starting her little 3 ring binder from printing off some of the sites suggested here...
