Caring Together: Activity Stations
Source Institutions
In this Bob the Builder(TM)-themed activity, learners explore the 3Rs (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) by rotating through several activity stations.

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

A Matter of Splatter
Source Institutions
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.

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

Headphone Helper
Source Institutions
In this design challenge activity, learners add headphones to a previously built instrument (see "Build a Band" activity) to make it easier to hear.
Building Houses: Build a Cardboard Tube House
Source Institutions
Build a house you can fit inside, using cardboard tubes.

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

Comparing Sizes of Microorganisms
Source Institutions
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

Skewers and Garden Poles
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build scaled-down structures and cantilevers in a series of "building out" challenges with bamboo skewers and tape.

Join the Dinosaur Age
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners rotate through several learning and play stations to explore dinosaurs and paleontologists.

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

Engineered Music
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore how musical instruments are engineered.

Positive Planning Adds Up
Source Institutions
In this drawing/mapping activity, learners design plots of land while incorporating positive strategies for improving water quality.

Our Beautiful World
Source Institutions
In this Bob the Builder(TM)-themed activity, learners go on a nature walk outside and describe what they observe using their senses.

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

It's Natural
Source Institutions
This activity introduces learners to Native Americans as people who depended upon nature in the past and continue to emphasize the importance of nature in the present.
Giant Museum: Create a Scale Model
Source Institutions
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?

Density Rainbow and the Great Viscosity Race
Learners conduct two activities to investigate two properties of liquids: density and viscosity. In a clear container, learners stack 7 different liquids which will layer according to their density.

Tempest in a Teacup
Source Institutions
In this hands-on activity, learners determine the types of chemical reactions achieved when combining different household products.

Design a Flavor: Experiment to Make Your Own Ice Cream Flavor!
Source Institutions
In this delicious activity, learners get to make, taste-test and compare their own "brands" of homemade strawberry ice cream.
