In this physics demonstration, learners will be surprised when a handkerchief holds water in an upside-down glass.

In this activity, learners discover that nanoparticles of gold can appear red, orange or even blue. They learn that a material can act differently when it’s nanometer-sized.

In this activity, learners will use string and salt to lift an ice cube out of a glass of water. Salt depresses the freezing point of water, allowing it to melt around the string and refreeze.

In this activity, learners assemble large cubes to make nano-related images. Learners discover how different objects are related to nanoscience and nanotechnology.

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.

In this activity, learners investigate how inkjet printers produce tiny, precise drops of ink.

This is a highly visual demonstration that illustrates both the effects of density and chemical reactions.

This activity gets learners looking at 6-sided shapes in nature, including the cells of a beehive, as well as other shapes.

In this activity, learners discover that the way a material behaves on the macroscale is affected by its structure on the nanoscale.
