Learners make a "menu" of any plants in their lunch for Monday through Friday and draw the plants from their lunch.

This is an activity about robotics programming. Learners will discover how precise programmers have to be as they instruct a friend to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

In this activity, learners thread gumdrops together to make a model of a polymer.

Learners analyze candy-coated sweets using chromatography. Learners use this method to separate the various dyes used to make colored candy.

In this demonstration/activity, learners observe as a regular size marshmallow is blown through a tube made from a manila file folder.

In this physics activity, learners will investigate the strength of egg shells.

In this activity, learners make a yeast-air balloon to get a better idea of what yeast can do. Learners discover that the purpose of leaveners like yeast is to produce the gas that makes bread rise.

This hands-on activity shows you how to build basic architectural shapes out of toothpicks and gumdrops.

In this physics activity, learners experiment with the attractive and repulsive power of magnets.

In this demonstration, adult learners create a lava lamp using beer and nuts! Use this pub-themed activity to demonstrate the effects of buoyancy and bubbles.

In this activity (located on pages 23-24 of the PDF), learners are introduced to structural engineering and encouraged to practice goal-oriented building.

In this physics activity, learners attempt to lift a jar full of rice using only a spoon.

In this activity, learners eat a snack and make a model of the plumbing system of a volcano.

In this simple exploratory activity (1st activity on the page), blindfolded learners try to identify mystery items by smell.

Perform this classic inertia demonstration to illustrate the transfer of potential energy to kinetic energy.

In this activity, learners use Starburst® candy to sort, classify, compare, and graph. Learners grab a handful of one-inch candy squares, sort them by color, graph the candy, and discuss the results.

In this activity, learners explore the forces at work in water. Learners experiment to find out what happens to pepper in water when they touch it with bar soap and liquid detergent.

In this activity, learners explore static electricity and electrical charges while experimenting with an inflated balloon, unflavored gelatin powder, and a wool sweater.

In this yummy chemistry activity which requires adult supervision, learners use sugar and water to explore how crystals form.

In this activity about olfaction (7th activity on the page), learners use natural ingredients to concoct their own perfume.
