Flash News: Online Science Quiz for Kids

Is little Junior or tiny Pun'kin a genius...or, um, just a little geeky?

Thanks to an online test posted by the National Organization for the Professional Advancement of Black Chemists and Chemical Engineers (NOBCChE), parents and teachers can now use web-based tools to assess children's interest in and understanding of scientific concepts.

Although the site offers two test levels, adults may quickly discover that "Easy" isn't that easy, and "Hard" is really, really tough.

The online test is free and available 24/7.
