The Science of Light, Sound, and Electricity
Product
Information
Your
child is naturally inquisitive about the surrounding world.
Thinkin'
Science excites this curiosity with fun-filled activities that use
scientific
tools to solve problems and explain science concepts. Working
with laser
beams, electrical circuits, and "visible" sound waves, students
practice valuable thinking skills - observation, prediction, deductive
reasoning, conceptual modeling, theory building, and hypothesis testing
- while
experimenting within a highly scientifically accurate
environment. Introduce your child to the fun and mystery of
science! |

Skills
Learned
- Experiment with Light.
Bounce it, bend it, absorb it, blend it.

Electricity. Tinker with circuits, switches, voltage, current,
and resistance.

Electroloft
Make electricity flow at your command with circuits, current,
resistance, and
voltage -- your shop is equipped with the same tools the pros use!
Concert Area
"See" sound waves in action as you adjust sound sources, test
properties, and blend and identify sounds. Make high frequency
BoogieBots dance
while low amplitude ones stand still.
