In this activity, learners build unique yo-yos, which spin round and round without moving up and down.

Learners use shop tools and various materials to construct a magnetic spinner and a compass.

In this technology activity, learners light up the room with electrifying play dough creations. Learners use conductive and insulating homemade play dough to build simple circuits.

In this activity, learners explore trebuchet design. Teams of learners construct trebuchets from everyday materials.

In this Bob the Builder(TM)-themed activity, learners explore the 3Rs (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) by rotating through several activity stations.

In this activity, learners rotate through several learning and play stations to explore dinosaurs and paleontologists.

In this activity, learners discover that some things only stand up while they are spinning.

In this activity, learners construct a device that allows them to view 2-D images in 3-D.

In this activity, learners make a Benham Top to explore visual illusions and optics.

In this engineering activity (page 5 of PDF), young learners investigate how materials and design contribute to the strength of a structure, particularly walls.

In this activity, learners consider how a simple machine, a lever, turns a small push or pull (a small force) into a larger--or stronger--push or pull (a larger force).
