  1. Activity Board - Conductivity Experiment
    Activity Board - Conductivity Experiment
    Product Code: 35377
    Price $318.89 $289.90

    Note: This board has an anticipated ETA of approx July to October 2023.

     

    Electricity is the most versatile energy source that we have. Lights, fans, computers and most other electrical appliances are powered up by electric current. For an electric current to happen, there must be a circuit. A circuit is a closed path or loop around which an electric current flows. This Conductivity Experiment wall panel comes with 2 electric circuits. The circuit on the upper part is still an open circuit requiring children to make it a closed circuit by pressing one of the 4 buttons. Each button represents 1 type of material of different conductivity. If plastic or tile is chosen, the light won't be turned on because electric current cannot pass through insulating materials. Another circuit is also an open circuit. Children will be asked to use their bodies as connectors to make it a closed circuit. When a child put both hands on the panel, the light will turn on! Children will be amazed by this phenomenon. Teaching them that our human bodies are conductive cannot be easier!

    These boards can be used as a floor or table activity, mounted to a wall or with the free-standing Painting Window (#35351) and the Desktop Painting Window (#35350).

    Made from Russian birch plywood and beech wood.

    Size of board: 46cmW x 46cmL.

  2. Activity Board - The Earth
    Activity Board - The Earth
    Product Code: 35396
    Price $318.89 $289.90

    Earth is the only planet known to have current geological activity, like earthquakes and volcanoes. It is the only planet known to have life. Earth has one natural satellite, the Moon, which is the only large satellite of a terrestrial planet in the Solar System. This learning board demonstrates how moon orbits earth and how earth orbits sun. It also explains why we have day and night in a day and why there are four seasons in a year. The learning also shows the inner structure of the earth and demonstrates what happens inside a volcano when it erupts. Special lighting effects are used for better demonstration of orbiting and volcano eruption.

    These boards can be used as a floor or table activity, mounted to a wall or with the free-standing Painting Window (#35351) and the Desktop Painting Window (#35350).

    Made from birch plywood and beech wood.
