Experiment with the tightly packed, compressed air inside a balloon to amplify small sounds into big noises.

Nanogirl goes in search of a conversation with some fish.

Many animals make music: grasshoppers, birds, whales, and gibbons all sing or at least seem to be singing. They sing to communicate with each other.

The vets at Wellington zoo encounter a lot of interesting patients. Luckily, they have a range of amazing technologies that harness light and sound to help them see inside sick and injured animals.

Ears are great! You can hook your glasses over them; you can hang earrings from them, and they can stop your hat sliding down over your eyes! But, how do your ears work?

Music offers a context for concepts of sound that is familiar to children and that they can easily relate to. The concepts on ways in which musical sounds are produced and reach our ears can be investigated and explored in activities that are both relevant to and extend children’s experiences.

Light and sound are all around us. What produces light and sound? Can you feel sound? Does sound travel through things? Do we need light to see? Are two eyes better than one? Let’s use our senses to explore light and sound.

Are you feeling fit and healthy? Check your heart rate while resting and after physical activity by making your own stethoscope.
