Who ever said physics was boring?! With Animated Physics, little ones will have a blast as they explore topics like gravity, inertia, buoyancy and more! Using real-life examples and engaging visuals, this is the perfect introduction to the exciting world of physics. Kids (and parents) will not only discover more about the world around them, they'll have fun doing it too!
Tips for Parents

Here's how to talk to your child about it
In this video, kids learn about physics and different forces like gravity, inertia, and buoyancy. They also learn about Isaac Newton's laws of motion and how things move when a force is applied. Physics is fun and helps us understand the world around us!

Some activities you can do with your child now
- Discuss and explain the concept of inertia using examples from the video, such as a toy car rolling and stopping on its own. - Conduct a simple experiment to demonstrate gravity, such as dropping objects of different weights and observing their fall. - Engage in a hands-on activity to explore buoyancy, such as filling a basin with water and testing which objects float or sink. - Create a fun game or challenge involving forces, such as using a toy rocket to launch and see how high it can go.

1 take away from the video for your child
"Objects stay still or keep moving unless something pushes or pulls them. The harder you push or pull, the faster they move. Gravity pulls things down. When you push something, it pushes back. Friction resists movement. Buoyancy makes things float. Forces can change the direction of air or create lift. Rockets create an equal force in the opposite direction."
