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 explore Boyle's Law and discover that water will boil at room temperature if its pressure is lowered.

In this activity, learners conduct a simple experiment to see how electrically charged things like plastic attract electrically neutral things like water.

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

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

In this activity, learners sublimate dry ice and then taste the carbon dioxide gas.

In this activity, learners make their own heat waves in an aquarium.

In this activity, learners experiment with surface tension using everyday household items such as strawberry baskets, paperclips, liquid dish soap, and pepper.

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

In this physics activity, learners conduct two experiments to explore free-falling.

In this activity, learners investigate convection by using food coloring and water of different temperatures.

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

In this weather-related activity, learners make a portable cloud in a bottle.

In this activity, learners construct a simple electrolysis device. With this device, learners can decompose water into its elemental components: hydrogen and oxygen gas.

In this activity, learners build a simple electrolysis device. Then learners use an indicating solution to visualize hydrogen and oxygen molecules in water.

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

In this activity, learners conduct an experiment to find the volume of one mole of gas. Learners capture sublimated gas from dry ice in a ziploc bag and use water displacement to measure its volume.

In this physics crime lab or demonstration, learners pretend they are criminologists and must find the "muzzle velocity" (speed of the bullet as it leaves the gun) of a gun used to commit a crime.

With a coffee filter, a black marker, and a cup of water, discover the secret colors hidden in black ink.

In this activity, learners use plastic water bottles, wood, and water to build an inexpensive and portable tool to demonstrate one atmosphere of pressure at sea level.
