The kitchen has always been the ideal laboratory for applied sciences and scientists, who have influenced everyday cooking up to modern molecular gastronomy. As the kitchen is familiar to students, it is useful for science teachers to exploit it as a resource to provide their students with different activities which are also interesting, informative and scientifically correct. The project is aimed at: promoting the experimental approach to science even in schools without a lab; encouraging teachers to perform lab activities with the help of structured and indexed materials; issuing a menu of didactical experiments that can be performed with ordinary materials and devices; linking the experiment menu to specific topics of science curricula from primary to lower secondary school; stimulating teachers' creativity and providing them with a didactical framework for new experimental activities. The project's strong points are: the appealing approach to scientific subjects; the integration with curricula at different levels; the links with subjects from Biology, Physics, Chemistry and Earth Science; the integration with the resources on the web (e-learning); the possibility to expand the materials.
