In this activity about the relationship between food and energy (page 5 of PDF), learners conduct an experiment to compare how much energy is released as heat from two different foods.

In this activity about the relationship between food and energy (page 1 of PDF), learners observe and quantify the growth of yeast when it is given table sugar as a food source.

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

This Exploratorium activity can be used in many contexts because geysers are great opportunities for learning about heat and temperature changes as well as geological/space science phenomena.

In this activity/demo, learners discover how liquid nitrogen cools a creamy mixture at such a rapid rate that it precipitates super fine grained (nano) ice cream.

In this fun and delicious chemistry activity (page 1 of the PDF), learners will explore the difference between physical and chemical change by making homemade ice cream.

Learners build a simple solar oven from a shoebox, black construction paper, and aluminum foil. Over the course of a few hours, the oven heats up water enough to brew tea.

In this tasty activity, learners make their own ice cream any day of the year in an exploration of heat and cold. Highlights include freezing and melting and the transition from liquid to solid.

In this activity about combustion and energy, learners observe a burning candle in a sealed jar and the burning of white sugar.

In this experiment, learners will conduct chemical and physical tests to identify mystery substances.

In this activity, learners build models of comets, using edible materials, to learn about comets' structure.

In this activity (on page 14 of PDF), learners use a pan full of flour and some rocks to create a moonscape.
