About This Lesson

Learn how UV light from the sun degrades plastic over time and discover ways to protect toys from discoloration and damage.

But even the more destructive qualities of sunlight can be put to creative use. This activity will show how the sun’s direct energy can interact with paper and objects and create some amazing art!
