  This series is designed to introduce children to the technology around them in a way that is both informative and enjoyable. Step-by-step instructions and illustrations show children how to make their own simple models, and the text encourages them to investigate the scientific principles that make these models work. The books are relevant to the National Curriculum and contain notes for parents and teachers. This book focuses on colour and light. The activities are based on the use of paints and dyes, prisms, mirrors and lenses to make models which include shadow theatres, kaleidoscopes, periscopes and telescopes.
