Objects rolling down a slope, or wheeled models travelling down sloping
rails, can be made to strike equally spaced little bells hanging above. You
can SEE that the spacing of the bells is constant and you can HEAR the
frequency of the 'pings' increasing.
It's a neat way to experience acceleration.
Simple is good.

through a contagious delight in phenomena

Give people facts and you feed their minds for an hour.
Awaken curiosity and they feed their own minds for a lifetime.
