Helping your child with measuring volume and mass

Helping your child with measuring volume and mass describes how children learn about measurement through initially exploring and comparing objects before using formal measurements such as kilograms and grams. This pamphlet looks at how playing with things such as boxes and marbles, pouring water into containers and using scales can assist children's knowledge about volume and mass.
