Minecraft STEM Science and Environment: Ignite your child's passion for STEM with this official Minecraft learning resource, full of scientific adventures and challenges. (Minecraft Education) Paperback – 20 Jun. 2024

My seven year old grandson's favourite online game. Is Minecraft and he loved this book.

Great book, educational but also piques the interest of a learning resistant 8 year old so a win all round

This is great, some good work on different elements of nature in the book then at least one project per chapter that builds on that idea like growing food in cold climates and genetics project on pandas.

I got this for my 10 year old son, who at the moment has phases of what he is interested in. He used to be quite avidly in to Minecraft, but now enjoys things with a bit more fast-paced challenge to them.He sat down and read through the first chapter of the book, and started building out the exercise, but like the main character in the book, didn't exactly plan things but threw himself in to it.I think if your child is a good reader (i.e. reading is easy, which it is for my son), and you have them at the stage that they aren't experts in Minecraft, then this is going to be a really god hit. At this stage they would learn and enjoy the learning. However, I think for my son, he is slightly too far in to the game, so the challenge just wasn't quite there enough to fully capture his interest. Possibly it would be good to do in groups with slightly younger children with an adult walking them through the exercises.

If you have an 8-year-old boy who’s into Minecraft (and really, who doesn’t?), this workbook is absolutely brilliant! It takes the creativity and excitement of Minecraft and combines it with educational activities like math and design technology.The tasks are engaging and cleverly designed to make learning fun while tapping into their love for the game. I can’t wait to dive into it with my son, he’s already excited to get started! This is a must-have for any parent looking to sneak in a bit of learning while keeping their child entertained. Highly recommended!

A book that is well presented and does what it says it will do. My grandson spent hours with it reading, experimenting, learning and achieving. I'm very pleased with this purchase.

Very good Minecraft book my son who is 10 really enjoys it and is obsessed with anything Minecraft. it shows him a lot of tips and tricks in the book to play the game.

My son is pretty Minecraft obsessed so I thought he would love this book but I feel like at age 7 it's still a bit above his level. I do like that it is told in a story narrative following Cam and Leela on their adventures. It covers life cycles of animals and plants, ecosystems, food chains, conservation, types of rocks, renewable energy, habitat and adaptations. I like that book acknowledges there are differences between the Minecraft world and real life e.g. stating frogs don't eat slim in real life but a lot of the Minecraft world is also related to the real world so they can do projects to build their own pyramids in game like the Egyptians, make obsidian and even become a coral scientist to assemble an artificial reef and build turtle nurseries to release them back to the ocean when they are big enough. I thought when the book arrived that it was solely for use in game so it was good to see that it introduced them to a subject and with the information provided there were sections they could fill in missing words, explain their thinking to a question and collect emeralds based on their answers to these offline before then going on to try the projects in game. I've loved just how educational the game itself has been so this gives them fun things to accomplish while learning in game. The back has answers where they can find out if they've got the right answer / how many emeralds they get for a correct answer.
