Apologia and WA: Physical Science More Physics

I try to locate activities for every key concept.  Apologia's Young Explorers: Chemistry and Physics has a number of interesting activities for Forces and Motion, such as a balloon and penny to demonstrate centripetal force.

Rocket balls are a terrific way to demonstrate momentum or simply a transfer of energy.  







Another fun activity is Egg Toss, or Egg Throw.  Kids love this!  You can throw a raw egg as hard as you like against a sheet and it will not break.
