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

Learners examine the manufacturing process while they make picture frames from cereal boxes.

Students design and build their own parachutes in this hands-on engineering project.

Have you ever heard of a camera without a lens? In this activity, learners create a pinhole camera out of simple materials. They'll see the world in a whole new way: upside down and backwards!

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

In this activity, learners will build the highest tower they can out of recycled materials.

In this activity, learners explore the size and scale of dinosaurs. Learners listen to "Dinosaurs, Dinosaurs" by Byron Barton to understand some background information about dinosaurs.

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

In this outdoor activity and game, learners explore how animals adapt for survival through coloration, markings and camouflage.

In this activity, leaners explore building techniques by recreating the story of The Three Little Pigs.

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 hands-on experiment, kids use chemistry to explore whether acids or bases are better at restoring a penny’s shine.

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

Build a house you can fit inside, using cardboard tubes.

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

In this activity related to microbes, learners create scale models of microorganisms and compare relative sizes of common bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa using metric measures: meters, centimete

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

In this activity, learners will predict the size of a giant scale model of a comb or other rectangular object, then make one. If you tripled the size of a dollar bill, could you sit on it?

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

In this delicious activity, learners get to make, taste-test and compare their own "brands" of homemade strawberry ice cream.
