With summer just around the corner, fireworks aren’t far behind. But before the real ones light up the sky, your kids can create a burst of color and science with these DIY fireworks glasses.
They’ll experiment with lenses, diffraction, and light—and end up with a homemade pair of glasses that make any bright light sparkle like a July 4th finale.
It’s part physics, part art, and all kinds of fun.
