Light & Sound

Humans depend on light and sound to learn about the world around them through the senses of sight and hearing. Light and sound come from energy moving in waves, but their properties are different. Understand these properties with hands-on investigations and devices that enable us to communicate with each other.

The Light & Sound Pathway presents a K-8 curriculum that touches on a variety of topics including physical science and experimentation.

Please Note: Check with a Guest Services staff member to find out if a live presentation related to Light and Sound is scheduled for the day of your visit.
