In this activity, learners will observe laminar and turbulent flow of water using only a plastic bottle, liquid hand soap, food coloring and water.

Learners draw comic-style pictures to show the water cycle. From a starting picture, one learner draws what happens to the water in the next panel, then passes the comic strip to another learner.

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

This is a simple and fun activity for learners to explore water and colors.

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

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.

In this activity, learners will write a secret message that only their friends will be able to read.

In this activity, learners create secret messages using a candle. Learners discover that watercolor paint is attracted to some materials, like paper fibers, but not others, like oil.
