In this activity, learners build cars using syringes and water-powered hydraulics. Learners construct the car frame out of cardboard and set up a hydraulic system to raise and lower the car.

In this activity on page 5 of the PDF, learners mimic the process for making bricks. Learners shape and bake creations from a dough that is made from flour, salt, and water.

In this story time program, young learners listen to the Dr.

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

Learners use M&Ms® (or any other multi-color, equally-sized small candy or pieces) to create a pie graph that expresses the composition of air.

In this activity (located on page 6 of the PDF), learners explore the ways people access water in their homes.

Make a kite out of a garbage bag, shower curtain, painting tarp--anything light, thin, flexible and plastic!

In this activity, learners build a racecar using only a rubber band, spool, straw, and paper clip! This racer is a classic toy that zips across a flat surface.

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

In this activity about problem-solving, learners build a house for the Three Little Pigs using twenty straws and two index cards.

Learners make their own paper. They start by shredding old newspaper, clean toilet paper, and clean paper towels.

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

In this activity, learners make their own binary code bracelets by translating their initials into 0s and 1s represented by beads of 2 different colors.

In this activity on page 8 of the PDF, learners make a slimy substance very similar to mucus, and sprinkle it with glitter to imitate the way that allergens are trapped.

In this engineering activity, young learners investigate multi-level buildings.

In this activity, learners use design thinking to design and build their own bridge out of household materials including adhesives and/or connectors.

Learners design and create musical instruments from common objects; their challenge is to create an instrument that can make three different tones.

In this activity, learners explore electricity and conductivity to find that many things conduct electricity including copper, pencil lead, fruit, play-doh, and even people!

Students design and create their own air-powered rockets, in this hands-on activity.
