These are a series of fun pamphlets aimed at families and children who may wish to try their own DIY science experiments. Many may not produce original science, but would increase the skills and confidence of newcomers to the topic. Others may lead to interesting community efforts to air or soil quality monitoring, for example.
​
In 2017 the "DITOs Bus" toured Europe, stopping in towns which lacked facilities such as a science museum. It provided workshops on DIY science in areas such as making your own yoghurt, sunscreen or pH meter, or on testing air quality or bacteria. These leaflets may be useful for future community workshops that citizen science practicioners wish to run. Please note they are already available in several languages, so double-check that yours is not already there!
