Why is the sky blue? Why does a straw look bent in water? How does a mirror show your face?
A rainbow appears, and suddenly your child has six questions. You want to share their excitement, but explaining light is harder than pointing out its colours. Even the things we see every day can leave us searching for words that make sense to a child.
You don’t need to know every answer to help your child discover something wonderful.
Join Ayden and Aysha as they follow light through rainbows, reflections and shadows, discovering the surprises hidden in the things we see. With 60 illustrated lessons, each beginning with a question, Light and Optics gives curious children aged 6 to 11 clear explanations and surprising Fun Facts about light, colour, lenses and seeing, and gives parents somewhere to begin.
Read one question together. Follow the conversation wherever it leads. Younger children can enjoy listening and asking more questions; confident readers can explore for themselves.
With a lesson index and four vocabulary pages, it’s easy to return to a favourite discovery or find the words for a new one.
Book 2 of 25 in the Ayden and Aysha Discover the World collection, created by Monalisa.
Help them look a little closer, and share the moment when something familiar begins to make sense.
