It's time for parent-child school recommendation again, and it's a beautiful thing to read a good book with your child and enjoy a warm reading time.
Why does it warm around a stove? Why do vacuum cleaners suck in dust? What is the function of the pattern under the sole? These daily problems that make children curious are actually related to physical knowledge. Share some interesting physics initiation books, hoping to build familiarity with physics concepts in children's daily life.
"One Foot into the Physical World"
Author: Yu Shui; Mandy Suhr
Recommended age: 3-6 years old
Physical knowledge is everywhere in our lives, and we use it for all sorts of things. On a construction site, why can gravity machines lift very heavy things? Why does the kicked football stop after rolling? "One Foot into the Physical World" uses simple language and humorous illustrations, skillfully uses common physics knowledge in life, and explains various basic physical principles such as gravity, thrust, tension, friction, speed, sound, light, electricity, materials, etc.
The whole set consists of 9 volumes, and after each volume, there is a small experiment in physics that is easy to operate. When knowledge becomes fun, it can stimulate children's desire to explore scientific principles.
《The Secret of DK Mechanical Operation》
Author:David. Macaulay
Recommended age: 7-12 years old
From levers, pulleys, and screws to inclined planes, wedges, and wheels, this book borrows 6 simple and typical machines to create escape tools and take children through the world of physical mechanics.
Starting with the gears that turn on the cover, the book features folding, turning pages and other interactive controls that blend the principles of mechanics and gameplay, as well as knowledge into an interesting story. The book is about a small sloth and a mouse who want to escape the zoo they are tired of, and they need the help of some simple machinery. Some self-assembled machinery, an escape story that a child is interested in, such content can easily interest children. The official recommended age for this book is 7-14 years old, but in terms of story content and interactive settings, it may be more suitable for children aged 7-12.
Quantum physics, fun and easy to understand! 》
Author: [Han] Li Yizhou; 【Han】Painted by Hong Seung-woo
Recommended age: 7 years old and above
The 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to the field of quantum physics research, which makes "What is quantum physics?" What are applications of quantum physics? " has become a hot discussion at this stage. How to improve children's understanding of this field? Quantum physics, fun and easy to understand! This series of books brings together 39 experts in the field of modern physics and 48 major discoveries in physics, in the form of comics, with the help of reasoning and experiments, to popularize modern physics to children.
In this book, the child can follow the protagonist through the scientific journey again and again. Through conversations with Plante and observation of his three experiments, he learned about Plante's discoveries and the basis of quantum theory; Through a dialogue with Einstein, the photon hypothesis and the photoelectric effect were understood; Through an encounter with Bohr, the "Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics" was learned... In addition to interesting stories, the book also shows real pictures of scientific historical materials and restores important experimental scenes, which can better help children understand quantum physics.
"Teacher Li Yongle Talks Physics to Children"
Author: Li Yongle
Recommended age: 3-10 years old
When it comes to teacher Li Yongle, some parents may be more familiar. Li Yongle is a well-known physics teacher, and this set of books was created by him after three years. Different from the teaching materials often used by teacher Li Yongle, this set of books uses children's own language and favorite animations, adopts anthropomorphic images, imitates children's real life and entertainment scenes, answers children's common "100,000 whys", and allows children to build a scientific knowledge system during the sensitive period of knowledge.
A complete set of 10 scientific picture books, covering everything from mechanics, electromagnetism, thermals, and quantum mechanics. The whole set of books will be some knowledge scenes of primary and secondary school physics education into interesting and fun animations, whether it is small sliders, small balls, small magnetic needles, or the "regular" Newton's three laws, photoelectric effect, wave-particle duality in the middle school entrance examination, are common props and scenes in this book.
"Ah! Physics (Ah!) Physics）》
Written by Red Dot
Recommended age: 2-6 years old
This is a set of physics enlightenment game books that are suitable for young children. Through pulling, sliding, roulette wheels, mirrors, etc., as well as simple sentences and illustrations, this set of books integrates common physical knowledge in life into interactive children's stories, which will make it easier for young children to understand some of the workings of the real world.
The complete set of 20 volumes, covering the physics of waves, electricity and magnetism, heat and energy, force and motion, and matter. The highlight of this series of books is that the interactive forms are novel and diverse, and they are highly relevant to life, which can create a common sense for children to relate to everyday phenomena and physical concepts. However, because this set of books is an original English picture book, whether it is for parent-child reading or independent reading, there are certain requirements for English reading ability.
