What’s It Like? Meet Science: Light and Sound teaches kids about light and sound through lessons, mini-games, and simple experiments. Cute characters appear throughout the lessons, making science more kid-friendly. There are four exploration areas: Learn, Experiment, Glossary, and Mini-Games. In Learn, kids can choose from six different lessons that cover topics with both text and voice-over speech. Each lesson page includes an animation that supports learning. A lesson ends with a brief quiz and links to experiment videos that relate to the lesson. In Experiment, kids can directly access the experiments that appear at the end of the lessons.

Price: $4.99

Grades: 3-5

Pros: A variety of teaching strategies promotes learning, reinforcement, and assessment.

Cons: Quizzes at the end of the lessons are short, and there are only three mini-games to choose from.

Bottom line: This science resource can help kids learn, explore, and safely experiment with light and sound.
