CD Science Game

It's one of the fun science games, discovery kids games and games kids can play at home or in the classroom.

Need: one CD, flashlight, one piece of white paper

Get you CD out of the case and just hold it in your hand. If it's daylight and sunny, take it and stand by the window.

Turn it over to the side without a label on and just observe it by the window. Move it around in your hands.

You should see lots of colors appearing as you move the cd!

If you're doing this at night, stand in a dark room with a flashlight. Shine the light on the CD and observe the colors.

Then take your white paper and place it behind your CD as you stand by the window or shine the flashlight on the CD.

You should see colors appear on the white paper!

Play around with it by moving the cd in your hands, getting closer and then further away from the paper and see how the colors change!

For in class science games, have the kids write down all the colors they see while shining a flashlight on the CD in a dark corner of the classroom.

Then have them hold the white paper by the CD and get them to write the colors they see.

Have them compare the two to see if one or more colors are prominent in each separate experiment.

Parents can do this at home with the kids, too.
