What is Exploring sound about?

How do we hear a sound, and why do some sounds seem loud while others are soft? Exploring Sound introduces young readers to vibrations, pitch, volume and the way sound travels. Clear explanations, colourful examples and simple experiments encourage children to listen carefully and investigate the sounds around them. Readers can make and compare sounds using everyday objects, discovering how music, voices and noises are created. The activities make science practical, engaging and easy to understand.
