Description/Notes
These totally awesome, kid-friendly experiments teach the scientific basics of light and sound. And they're easy to carry out, using the most ordinary materials found around the house. Just grab a boom box, toilet paper tube, rubber band, or drinking straw to create a little smart magic. And it's fun to make cereal dance to the music and watch light bounce off a mirror and hit a bull's-eye. Hear your heart pumping through a funnel and tubing. Build a 'ray maker' to display the visible spectrum of light in a glorious rainbow tray. These experiments will change the way you look and listen to the world around you! Ordinary, easy to find materials are all you need to get moving on these fun-filled investigations into light and sound. Make music with bottles of water, create a boom in your room and make a slide projector with a torch and a magnifying glass. It's time to see the light and produce some good vibrations--with these awesome, kid-friendly experiments! ..'.provides kids ages eight to 12 with more than 45 experiments requiring mainly easy-to-find materials, to satisfy curiosity, enter a science fair, or just have fun.'--'NEA Today.
