This activity offers learners and their families several ways to raise their awareness together about home water.

In this activity, learners consider the water features they might enjoy at a community park--a pond, brook, water playground (or "sprayground"), or pool--and what happens to the water over time.

In this outdoor water activity, learners explore evaporation by painting with water and tracing puddles. Learners will discover that wet things become dry as the water evaporates.

In this water activity, learners explore how water drops behave on different surfaces.

In this activity (located on page 3 of the PDF), learners investigate the way water moves and how we can control and direct water.

In this water activity, learners discover ways to move water across the water table.

In this indoor or outdoor water activity, learners pour water from small cups to large cups and containers. In doing so, they discover water takes the shape of its container.

In this activity, learners explore healthy choices related to the liquids they drink. The importance of water and milk as essential nutrients for a healthy body is the focus of the experience.

In this activity, learners explore properties of water and watch evaporation happen by "painting" with water in the sun.

This activity about density provides instructions for making a miniature "lava lite" with just salt, oil, water, and food coloring.

In this outdoor water activity, learners explore how to change the direction of water flow. Learners make puddles in dirt or use existing puddles and sticks to make water flow.

In this activity, learners investigate how different materials repel or absorb water. Learners use spray bottles to explore how everyday items like sponges, cardboard, feathers, etc.

In this water activity, learners test which objects float and which sink. Learners discover that objects behave differently in water.

In this water activity, learners test which objects float and which sink. Learners discover that objects behave differently in water.

In this activity, learners observe the hydrologic cycle in action as water evaporates and condenses to form rain right before their eyes.

In this activity, learners make their own "tornado" using two soda bottles and water.

In this activity, learners work in groups to build simple solar stills filled with salt water. After the stills are complete, learners observe what happens when they place the stills in the sun.

In this activity, learners create a biosphere in a baggie.

In this activity, learners capture and observe planaria, which are worms that eat tiny pond critters.

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