How To Gently Teach Physics (E-book)
A gentle guide to helping children understand physics through everyday play.
Physics can feel intimidating to teach, especially when it feels abstract or technical. Many parents want to give their children a strong foundation but aren’t sure how to begin.
However, as a parent, you are already laying the foundation simply by allowing your child to play!
What most of us miss are the small opportunities to connect what our children feel to meaningful physical science ideas. A swing can prepare a child to understand pendulums, and a zipline can build the foundation for Newton’s First Law, simply by asking the right questions at the right time.
This guide gives you a simple way to notice and talk about physics, before textbooks ever appear.
