Experiments with Sound and Hearing

Cool Science

This engaging activity book shows young scientists how every movement makes a sound, even if they cannot hear it, and that sound, like light, travels in waves. Many of the experiments hit a musical note—they include making a tuning fork, a stringed instrument, and a set of straw pipes. Fun fact boxes and a troubleshooting guide create a fully grounded experience of the science of sound.
