What are the most commonly used instruments and tools by engineers and scientists?
 
If you’re going to be doing homeschool science labs with your kids, it makes sense to figure out exactly what you want them to know and understand by the time you’re done. Scientists don’t just do experiments all day because they are fun and they love making a total mess… they do science experiments because they want answers to questions that they have.
 
If you’re going to spend time, energy, and money on doing lab experiments, what kind should you be focusing on? That’s going to depend on what exactly you want your child to learn.
