The two best resources I have found for teaching physics are Motion Mountain and my old high school physics textbook, The Dancing Wu Li Masters.

Yeah, that second one sounds a bit odd, but it's basically everything going from motion to particle physics explained by a journalist fact-checking with a bunch of physicists. Well worth a read from the library, but probably a good second resource after you've gotten a grounding on the basics.

"[RedGamut], are you a dad?" No, I reply to the seven year old boy. "You'd make a great dad." (When I was a counselor at a Golf Academy for kids)

Haha.. I remember as a joke, I would read them a bedtime story from The Dancing Wu Li Masters and they actually really enjoyed it and wouldn't let me stop reading it to them. :)

If you're truly starting from scratch, I recommend Gary Zukav's The Dancing Wu Li Masters. It's old (published in 1979), but it provides an excellent layman's overview of modern Physics right up to that point so that you can get a foundation to build on with more recent publications. Here's a review/description of it:

> a book that manages to explain relativity and a lot more without resorting to a single bit of mathematics (except for asking you to grasp the not-too-onerous concept that the velocity of light, a constant 186,000 miles per second, is a product of its frequency and wavelength). After all, Mr. Zukav writes, "The fact is that physics is not mathematics. Physics, in essence, is simple wonder at the way things are and a divine (some call it compulsive) interest in how that is so. Mathematics is the tool of physics, stripped of mathematics, physics becomes pure enchantment."

There really is not much Math in that text. It's all theory, and explains the core concepts and terms you'll see referenced and repeated in newer books.
