Ideas for Light and Dark at home with your child

Dear Parents,

This Unit of Inquiry, Light and Dark is a great unit also to bring into your homes, not just learning at school. You can talk with your child about many things over the course of this unit:

  • The time change that will be happening next week: why does it get darker earlier? What changes happen as a result? How does this effect our day?
  • What things can we do in the day time that we can't do at night time? (And vice versa)
  • Different uses and/or sources of light
  • Can they spot light sources, ie: traffic lights, police lights, ambulance on their way to school and home 
  • Colour mixing

We would like to ask if you have any old sunglasses or masks from the airplane that you would like to donate, that would be very helpful!


Thank you 

The Kinder Team
