My Science Journal

We recently visited a local science museum and were really inspired by how interactive and fun all the exhibitions were. Inspired so much in fact that we created a science journal as part of a pitch. The journal is aimed at children as a souvenir of the museum to take away with them acting as a prompt for recalling experiments and facts from the trip even after they've left the museum. There are facts, doodles, photographs and illustrations to encourage creative learning and fun elements such as a cut out paper plane.

The book is designed in a sketchbook style to encourage children to draw, scribble and jot down scientific discoveries and favourite experiments. The journal includes a cog design badge, stickers and three postcards designed as a direct mail device; allowing the children to send a postcard to a friend telling them about their visit.

My Science Journal Illustrations

The illustrations and design of this journal were based around the idea of a creative sketchbook. The pages have doodles and a range of different style illustrations, including scientific information and facts prompting children to remember what they have seen and learnt at the science museum and encouraging them to create their own science experiments. The pages allow the children to scribble down their ideas in the book and not be too precious but to express themselves creatively.
