In this activity (located on page 10 of the PDF), learners explore the properties of spraying and dripping water, while making art.

This activity provides instructions for using cornstarch and water to make an ooze which has the properties of both a solid and liquid.

Learners mix liquid water with solid cornstarch. They investigate the slime produced, which has properties of both a solid and a liquid.

In this nanoscience activity, learners discover that it's easy to pour water out of a regular-sized cup, but not out of a miniature cup.

In this activity, learners model atmospheric convection currents using food coloring, water, and clear cups. Activity includes step-by-step instructions, STEM connections, and more.

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 will explore how water affects marker on filter paper. Learners will use science process skills such as making observations and predictions as they explore color.

In this activity, learners use found natural materials to create a water haven for bees and other insects.

Learners are challenged to discover the relative densities of colored liquids to create a rainbow pattern in a test tube.

In this activity, learners conduct three experiments to examine temperature, the different stages of the water cycle, and how convection creates wind.

How many colors make black? Gather as many water soluble black markers as you can find.

In this activity, learners observe color mixing and absorbency using colored tissue paper and spray bottles.

This activity gives caregivers and their children an opportunity to practice scientific ways of thinking that are developmentally appropriate for early learners.

In this activity, learners will explore the dynamics of air pressure by using a candle, a cup, and a dish of water.

Learners use a commercially available toy to experiment with density. They fill a chamber in the toy submarine with baking powder and release it into a tank of water.

In this activity, learners explore in what ways the shape of the land and the pull of gravity influence how water moves over Earth.

In this activity, learners will use static elecricity to bend a stream of water without touching it. Learners will explore physics and cause and effect through this activity.

In this water activity, learners build boats that float and sink. First, learners listen to the book, "Who Sank the Boat" and practice making predictions throughout the story.

Learners design, build, and test models of "dragon boats" made from up to three milk cartons.

In this activity, learners of all ages can become food scientists by experimenting with flour and water to make basic pasta.
