In this activity, learners construct drawing machines using a cup, some markers, and a battery pack. The markers act as "legs" for the machine, making a drawing that records as it moves.

In this activity, learners discover that sand is the major ingredient in glass.

In this activity, learners explore sound by constructing their very own instruments using PVC pipes, soda bottles, and a straw.

This activity guide features three related explorations to help learners ages 3-6 investigate shadows via the following science concepts: A shadow is made when an object blocks the light; you can chan

In this activity, learners explore sound by constructing tube zithers, stringed instruments from Southeast Asia and the South Pacific.

In this activity, learners build their own sound machines and explore the interplay of motion and sound.

In this simple chemistry activity (page 1 of PDF under SciGirls Activity: Colorblind Dogs) about acids and bases, learners will mix a baking soda and water solution and use it to paint a message on a

In this indoor and outdoor activity, learners discover that insects grow and develop as do all living things, going through a process known as complete metamorphosis.

In this activity, learners build a carousel toy that spins when pushed down.

In this activity, learners create colorful bead bracelets to wear outside while searching for matching colors in plants. Learners will be surprised by the variety of colors in nature.

In this activity, learners build a mini dancing robot. This engineering activity introduces learners to electricity, circuits, switches, conductivity, and motors.

This outdoor activity/field trip requires a place where minnows swim, such as a local pond or brook.

In this math-based activity, learners will experiment to find how height and angle affect spatter and then use this knowledge to solve a crime.

In this design challenge activity, learners add headphones to a previously built instrument (see "Build a Band" activity) to make it easier to hear.

Learners create beautiful fluid motion. They explore fluid dynamics, surface tension, solubility, and buoyancy while mixing liquids together.

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

In this hands-on activity, learners determine the types of chemical reactions achieved when combining different household products.

In this activity, learners make critters out of recyclables and apply the rules of mathematics to solve genetics problems.

In this archaeology activity, learners consider ways in which excavating an underwater site is different from excavating a terrestrial site.
