Thanks for visiting! Right now you're on PHYSICS4KIDS.COM. If you are looking for basic physics information, stay on this site. It's not just physics for kids, it's for everyone. We have information on motion, heat and thermodynamics, electricity & magnetism, light, and modern physics topics. If you're still not sure what to click, try our site map that lists all of the topics on the site. If you surf and get lost in all of the information, use the search function on the side of the pages.

OKAY! Let's start here...

So you're asking, what is PHYSICS? Everything in the universe has an effect on every other thing. Physicists study those effects. Physics is a science that relates to all other sciences: Chemistry, Biology, Geology, Astronomy, Meteorology, Engineering, etc. If you can name it, chances are physics is involved.

Everything on Earth, everything in our solar system, everything in our galaxy, and everything in the universe moves and interacts, and forces play a big part in that. Physics studies those FORCES and interactions. Let's get started and look inside the physics of motion. Go take a look!

That's it for the introduction. Now its up to you to click and have fun! PHYSICS4KIDS is one of many free science sites developed by the team at the Kapili Islands. You may have also used Chem4Kids, Geography4Kids, Biology4Kids, or Cosmos4Kids. We have even launched a math activity site called NumberNut.com.

Now it's time for you to dive into our physics pages and start learning. Remember, the site offers an introduction to the science of physics. We try to explain the topics with as little math as possible. If you're not into graphics like home page image above, check out the site map where we list all of the pages of the site for you. Start clicking and have fun!
