Showing results for "Children" in Physics

This audiobook uses engaging nonfiction text and hands-on projects to help young listeners explore real-life rolling vehicle engineering projects, including the science behind how these vehicles are planned and built.

Gravity is the force on Earth that keeps things from floating into space. If we drop a dish, it will fall to the ground. If we jump into the air, we will come back down.

Kids will learn all the colors that make up white light are called the “spectrum.” These are the colors of a rainbow. Fun music will help explain that a prism is a special shaped piece of glass that breaks white light into seven colors. As the light passes through the prism it bends each color so we see all the colors separated from one another when the light comes out of the prism.

There are so many things that a physicist can study. It really depends on what they are interested in the most. Young science enthusiasts will explore many options that a physicist can study with upbeat, fun music and interesting lyrics, in this fact-filled audiobook.

Kids will learn that physics is a special science that studies all about matter, how it moves and affects other things. Physics explores our world and explains how a seesaw works, how hot air rise, and how sound waves travel. Young scientists will learn that physics explains how electricity works, how magnets attract, and how light travels in waves. Fun music will have kids singing and learning about this fascinating science.
