Science Day: Light, Sound and Forces at Christmas

The day will involve our children applying their Working Scientifically skills to answer a Christmas related question:

Santa’s getting old and he’s finding it hard to carry presents down chimneys. Would a pulley help him?

Santa mustn’t wake up sleeping children, but his shoes keep making noisy footsteps. How can you help him by muffling the sound?

The reindeer’s noses get too cold when they’re pulling Santa’s sleigh. We need to make them nose warmers. Which material should we use?
