Create 3D glasses and use them to explore color, light and optics. Fool your brain into 'seeing' three dimensions on a flat surface!

In this activity (12th on the page), learners investigate their ability to discriminate (see) different colors.

In this activity, learners calculate the width (horizontal diameter) of the blind spot on their retina. Learners make a blind spot tester using a piece of notebook paper.

In this activity (1st on the page), learners find their blind spot--the area on the retina without receptors that respond to light.

In this activity (16th on the page), learners play a variation of the "I Spy" game to explore color. Learners work in teams with each team assigned a color.

In this activity (13th on the page), learners complete a simple illusion trick to see through their own hand.

In this optics activity, learners build an animation tool to make mini movies. When you spin a phenakistascope, the pictures move so quickly that your eyes and brain can't separate the images.

In this activity, learners investigate visual perception as well as plan and conduct their own experiments.

In this activity (3rd on the page), learners conduct a series of tests to find out which of their eyes is more dominant.

These two activities (4th on the page) demonstrate the importance of two eyes in judging depth.
