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.

Learners create hard water by mixing Epsom salt and water. Then they compare what happens when soap solution is mixed with hard water and regular water.

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 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.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Water Slides) is a full inquiry investigation into speed and motion and takes place at a water park.

This is a quick activity (located on page 2 of the PDF under Nasturtium Leaves Activity) about surface tension.

This three-part activity consists of an activity that groups of learners develop themselves, a given procedure, and an optional demonstration.

Learners design their own experiment to determine which M&M color dissolves the fastest in water.

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

In this outdoor activity/field trip, learners catch and observe water striders to explore their movement and feeding behaviors.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Glaciers Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into the forces of gravity and air pressure.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Alligator Habitat Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into organisms and the health of their ecosystems.

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.

“Exploring the Solar System: Ice Orbs” is a hands-on activity in which visitors investigate a frozen orb, trying to learn about objects hidden inside.
