I ordered this book to work on with DD9 during the summer. It might be a little simple for a gifted 9 year old (sigh, kicking myself) but I think it would be a great book for a gifted 5/6/7 year old.
It explains Scientific Observation very nicely and each experiment starts with a question and leaves room for the kids to log their results/findings.
I still plan on doing this with DD9, I think she will still enjoy it.
