Light Around Us

Light helps us see. A source of light is anything that produces light.

  • Natural light: the sun, stars, lightning, fireflies.
  • Man-made light: lamps, torches, candles, phone screens.

Sound Around Us

Sound is made when something vibrates. Sources of sound include drums, bells, birds, cars and people talking.

Interesting fact: The sun is a natural source of both light and heat. We must never stare directly at it!
