As they roam around their woodland home, they observe, ask questions and comment on all the different sounds they hear; from the beautiful sound of the blackbird singing to the farmer's noisy tractor. In doing so, this text explores the principles of sound, thus supporting the Science Key Stage 1 (5-7 year olds) guidelines.
