Forces, Light & Shadows

Science & Innovation

Your child understands that things move because of a push or a pull, and they know how shadows are made when light is blocked.

In real life

On a sunny walk, your child jumps between sunlight and shade, watches their shadow disappear, and says, "It only shows when the sun is behind me."
