This is an activity which will allow learners to gain an understanding of lemur behavior through observation and role play.

In this colorful activity (page 6 of the PDF), learners will make a multicolor density column by using different concentrations of sugar solutions.

In this optics activity, learners explore how many objects they can see in a set of mirrors (hinged like a book) at various angles.

Learners experiment with a 2-liter plastic bottle containing water and four “divers." The divers consist of open, transparent containers with the opening points downward.

In this activity, learners use cheap, thin plastic garbage bags to quickly build a solar hot air balloon. In doing so, learners will explore why hot air rises.

In this up-cycling activity, learners recycle plastic bags and repurpose them into useful wallets.

In this activity, learners use an old CD to construct a spectroscope, a device that separates light into its component colors.

In this activity, multiple learners will use a game with ballloons to learn about coqui frog behavior.

In this activity, learners of all ages will experiment with paint and printmaking.

Trick your family and friends with this creepy crawler that moves up and down. In this activity, learners construct a circuit and motor device that will move a homemade spider in a spooky way.

In this activity (page 1 of PDF under SciGirls Activity: Pet Handedness), learners will construct a simple spinning top out of a circle of construction paper, a film canister lid, and a bamboo skewer.

In this paleontology activity, learners explore the system behind dinosaur nomenclature.

In this quick activity (page 1 of PDF under SciGirls Activity: Exercise and Memory), learners will investigate what happens to bubble gum when it is chewed for 5-10 minutes.

In this activity, learners use simple materials to create giant bubbles.

In this chemistry challenge, learners identify an unknown white powder by comparing it with common household powders.

Learners use M&Ms® (or any other multi-color, equally-sized small candy or pieces) to create a pie graph that expresses the composition of air.

In this chemistry challenge, learners identify which plants have the enzyme "catalase" that breaks hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen.

This resource contains ideas and brief instructions on how to build animals out of construction paper and other simple materials.

In this activity, learners explore how nanosized structures can create brilliant color.

In this environmental education demonstration (page 6 of the PDF), learners will see a tangible representation of the scarcity of soil resources on earth.
