Happy Groundhog Day! Did you see your shadow?

In addition to the light table, children have the option to explore light and shadow with projectors. They observed how colorful transparent blocks seemingly glow when placed on the projector, and noticed the shapes and colors that appeared on the wall as they arranged the objects. Shadows were also a fun effect, as they explored movement and the different shapes created by their hands as well as other opaque objects.  This interaction with light and shadow helps children understand cause and effect. What a great way to celebrate Groundhog Day!
