Toys and Science
http://www-toys.science.unitn.it/toys/en-html/en-indice.html Toys and Science The present work is a simplified version of the itinerant exposition Toys and Science. This exposition was ideated a few years ago (the first edition dates back to 1992, and was held in Trento) by Professor Vittorio Zanetti, for the Physics Department of the Università degli Studi di Trento. Since then, its success has been constantly growing, with so many demands from all over Italy that the current number of editions is near fifty. The exposition is composed of amusing objects, mostly toys (property of the Physics Department), which are lent together with explaining files. More than seventy different expositive units may be observed, each showing paradoxical and interesting aspects of physics. The units are arranged following the standard taxonomy for this science: mechanics, optics, astronomy, electro-magnetism, thermodynamics, chemistry, light, sound and so on. |

Toys in Space
http://www.tcet.unt.edu/weblibrary2/?subject=science Toys in Space How do toys perform in space? Do toys react the same in microgravity as they do in the Earth's gravity? Astronauts aboard the spaceship Endeavor experimented with common toys to find out how they act in an orbit 700 kilometers above the Earth. The video is designed for students to test toys, predict their motions in space and then compare the toys with similar ones demonstrated by the astronauts. resources | standards | video (37 minutes 38 seconds) | download (38.0 Mb) | 22 slides (0.5 Mb) | |

The Physics of Toys : WebQuest
http://library.thinkquest.org/4221/ The Physics of Toys : WebQuest This site is fun and it is science. Those two words hardly ever go together in the same sentence. We all like to play with toys, that is for sure. But...what is physics???? It is a great part of science that is all about gravity, force, motion and work. There we go again, work...with PLAY???? It all goes together and as you explore this site you'll soon know physics as well as you know play. |

Toys That Move
http://www.history-people.co.uk/moving-toys.html Toys That Move Not all toys need batteries or electricity to make them work, some of them need forces to move. The forces needed to work the toys below are PULL, PUSH, TWIST and GRAVITY. Click on a toy and then try to work out which force is needed to make it work. |

Toys in Space (NASA)
http://aerospacescholars.jsc.nasa.gov/HAS/cirr/ss/6/4.cfm Toys in Space (NASA) The first two Toys in Space missions were flown on shuttle flights STS-51D and STS-54. They provided school children with a series of experiments that they could do in their classrooms using a toys that demonstrate the laws of physics. Students could experiment with the toys, study about microgravity, and predict what the toys would do in space. The astronauts on those flights experimented with the toys and videotaped their results. Students could then compare their results to what actually happened in space. |
