The Energy for Children video series uses simple examples and
hands-on demonstrations to help young learners understand the
basics of energy and how it affects us in everyday life. The
series explains what energy is, the different kinds of energy,
and how we use and conserve it. See also: Physical Science for
Children.

We know that boiling water is hot, but did you know that an ice
cube also contains heat? In All About Heat, kids will
learn that all objects have heat energy, it’s just that some
have more than others. Kids will discover what heat energy is
and how we use it, while the host’s humorous antics help kids
understand how heat moves through conduction, convection and
radiation. Melting point and freezing point are explained with
colorful footage and dynamic graphics, while memorable examples
teach kids how adding heat causes most objects to expand, while
removing heat makes most objects contract. An engaging demonstration
helps children see convection in action. Young viewers will also
learn how a thermometer works by constructing their own simple instrument.

Energy can exist in two stages – potential and kinetic. Students
will see well-illustrated examples of both states and will learn
about energy sources. Discover ways that everyone can help conserve
energy with simple methods at home and school. A hands-on experiment
is included to further explain these concepts.

Energy moves from place to place and object to object all the time.
Without the ability to transfer energy, nothing would ever get accomplished!
In All About the Transfer of Energy, kids learn about potential and
kinetic energy and how energy transfers between these two states. Bowling
balls and rubber bands are used to demonstrate the transfer of energy, while
divers and snowboarders provide exciting real-life examples. Also included
is a fun, hands-on activity that shows students how increasing the height
of an object increases its potential energy.

In What Is Energy? humorous characters and engaging demonstrations
combine to give kids a solid overview of what energy is and how we use it.
See how a spinning pinwheel, a strumming guitar and a crackling fire all
serve as great examples of energy at work. Dynamic graphics and fun examples
teach kids how heat energy moves and how it affects atoms. Young viewers find
out that the sun is the ultimate source of the Earth’s chemical energy and that
sound is a form of mechanical energy. The program also introduces other forms
of energy, including electromagnetic and nuclear. Included is a fun activity
that allows kids to try their hand at putting some different forms of energy
to work.
