Got a query. DS devoured the Young Scientist vol I got from Popular within one mth. He's crazy over it. I've also ordered online this yr's issues but it's coming in drips and drops at one issue per mth. So now I need to find some more books to keep up with his interest.


I'm thinking of getting him the National Geographic Kids & Horrible Science (what's that anyway? Only thing I know is that CKS bought it so can't be bad). Is Horrible Science too advance for P1? The other option is to get Young Scientist Level 2 from Popular.

Thing is, I prefer cash & carry. I don't mind past yr issues. Is there anywhere I can take a look at them before buying? Don't think Popular has. Thanks.

wrong thread...go to Trading Post... you can find them there.....i only kpo browse through there but i NEVER buy for my dd yet.....

But but, I prefer to buy brand new ones leh .... :oops:

You mean trading post can get new ones? Ok, popping over now!

Anyway think Trapwithin got lobang. Trapwithin where are you?

Markfch, I heard from someone else that Bras Brasah has alot of 2nd past issue books, including Young Scientist. Popular carries one year before issue, like now, the 2010 issues, but of course, they do not come cheaper than the current year issue.

Great! Just went Bras Basah last week to get some CL books but my fav shop was closed :<

Looks like I can kill 2 birds with one stone this time round.

Markfch, you can drop by their office/factory and view the books directly.

English Corner Publishing Pte Ltd. They are located at Bukit Merah near SPRING Singapore. You can check their address in the website or call them for it... http://www.englishcorner.com Tel : 6225 5770

Yah, I got my Young Scientist from English Corner website. You mean they also sell National Geographic Kids & Horrible Science? Sorry to ask this basic qn cos now their website is down.

Happy Mama:

Do call them before going down... but be forewarned that the lady boss (I forgot her name) is gonna \"feedback\" that our Science HOD is not agreeable to bring in Young Scientist to PH etc etc.. Heehee....

I won't worry abt that cos ds ever finish 2 mags within a day. Don't need to bring to sch to complete.

Think can forget abt NG Kids- too many adverts now. Our S'pore Science Centre publishes a very good Science magazine.

Ya, but I thought you were looking for past issues of Young Scientist? :?

As for Asian Geographic (Junior), you can check with the publisher for past series. I recently bought 1 copy of it (through Trapwithin's recommendation) and was trying to look for the publisher for you, but I think my DD has misplaced it somewhere...

Really? Do you know how much is the subscription? Do we need to be a member of Science Centre before getting the magazine? I used to join Science Centre / Omni for the past few years but don't recall receiving any magazines from them.

I noticed that everytime I need help, you'll just happen to kpo and know the ans. :lol:

Wait, you helped me and I still made fun of you. Does that mean that next time you won't help me anymore :oops: .

Ok sorry, I eat back my words. :salute:
