Light and shadow experiments

2. It's the perfect day to go outside and do our sun and shadow science experiment.

We did some fun and educational Light and Shadow experiment to learn about shadows. You can also use these shadow activities to show kids how light moves and changes throughout the day. #lightandshadowexperiment #lightandshadowactivityforkids #lightshadowactivity

Shadows are formed when light is blocked by an object. On sunny days, shadows of ourselves, trees, houses, and many more are visible. The light from the sun helps create these darker areas. Explore this fact through these ten enlightening shadow activities that are exciting and interesting for young children.

Kristen | Play-based Learning on Instagram: "Rainbow Shadows Experiment Here’s an easy STEM activity to try with your little ones: Simply prop up 3 flashlights that are pointed at a white wall. Place red, green and blue @connetix_tiles magnetic tiles in front of each flashlight and adjust to make a white light. Unlike paint, when you mix all the colors of light you get white. For those that are interested in the science behind this, our eyes have three different cones that roughly…

Learn how to make a light box and try out some cool colr and light experiments with your kids! This is a fun experiment that kids love.

Kids will love these easy science experiments that explore shadows! I remember making hand puppets as a kid - awesome!

These light experiments are great science lessons for 1st graders! Aligned with NGSS, the resource also includes books and related activities.

Shadow tracing. Such a neat idea!

Happy Belated Groundhogs Day! We are lucky that our Science Instructional Calendar lined up so that we were studying Light and Shadows on February 2nd this year. With all the standards that we have to fit in, it's great to have a reason to celebrate :-) This year my kids did some cute Groundhog's day writing, talking about what their life would be like as a groundhog. I was really happy with and amused by their finished products! We also talk about how to make a shadow, and different light…

Light refraction is the bending of light, or the change in direction of the rays as it moves past a boundary. For example, when light crosses through a window, it is refracted and can create a rainbow. A prism illustrates this theory. As light passes through the prism, it refracts and separates into an entire spectrum, or rainbow, of light. Introducing this concept to preschoolers can be done by experimenting with prisms or by a simple project using a glass of water and a piece of white…
