Some simple experiments with sound, with explanations. And some very funny lines.

Director's Notes:

Glasses with different levels of water produce sound of differing frequencies. A vibration is transmitted from one glass to another by resonance.

Activity from The Little Giant Book of Science Experiments, H.J. Press (Amazon UK link).

SciCast Notes:

I love love love this film. It somehow disappeared from the old site, which means we’ve lost the count of how many views it collected. But it must have been stacks, surely?

The only thing funnier than kids being silly is kids being completely deadpan. Brilliant performances.
