In this activity, learners investigate diffusion by creating underwater "fireworks" using food coloring, oil and water.

In this four-part activity, learners explore how the body works and the chemistry that happens inside living things.

Learners add two dyes to mineral oil and water, and then compare their miscibility (how well they mix) in each.

In this colorful activity (page 6 of the PDF), learners will make a multicolor density column by using different concentrations of sugar solutions.

In this activity, learners touch supercooled water drops with an ice crystal and trigger the water drops to freeze instantly.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of density by pouring 5 different liquids into a jar. Food coloring is added if needed to give each liquid a distinct color.

Using two baby food jars, food coloring, and an index card, you'll 'marry' the jars to see how hot water and cold water mix.

In this activity, learners follow a recipe to make hollandaise sauce. Learners discover how cooks use egg yolks to blend oil and water together into a smooth mix.

In this chemistry activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners make a layered drink with liquids of different densities.

In this introductory activity, learners discover that sugar and food coloring dissolve in water but neither dissolves in oil.

This activity provides a hands-on experience with a scale model, a relatively high viscosity fluid, and feeding behaviors.

In this demonstration, learners compare the relative sizes and masses of scale models of the planets as represented by fruits and other foods.

In this chemistry investigation, learners combine common cooking substances (flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, pepper, oil, water, food coloring) to explore mixtures.

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

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 quick activity, learners drink Avogadro's number worth of molecules - 6.02x10^23 molecules!

In this activity, learners make their own rock candy. Crystals will grow from a piece of string hanging in a cup of sugar water. The edible crystals may take up to a week to form.

In this hands-on activity, learners make the world's simplest Cartesian diver, using only a plastic bottle, some water, and a condiment packet.

Learners place cut flowers in colored water and observe how the flowers change. The flowers absorb the water through the stem and leaves.

In this chemistry activity, learners are asked to form a hypothesis about the behavior of milk as household detergents act upon it.
