See flames dance to music, hear screaming rods, visualize soundwaves, observe tubes singing to heat, hear a sonic boom and more !

Concepts covered:

What do sound waves look like? Do soundwaves always travel at the same speed? How does the Doppler effect work? What is resonance?
How does a soundwave change with pitch and increasing volume.
Can sound travel through a vacuum? How are sound effects made?
What causes a sonic boom, see sand form weird patterns to soundwaves and much more?

Apart from having a great time, attending children will gain an understanding of how soundwaves operate and how this knowledge is applied in the real world.
