In this activity/demo, learners discover how liquid nitrogen cools a creamy mixture at such a rapid rate that it precipitates super fine grained (nano) ice cream.

In this physics activity, learners attempt to lift a jar full of rice using only a spoon.

In this activity, learners make instant ice cream without using a freezer.

In this chemistry activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will observe a chemical change, specifically what happens to iodine when it is applied to ripe and unripe apples.

Learners use a simple process to extract DNA from strawberries.

In this electrochemistry activity, young learners and adult helpers create a battery from a potato to run a clock.

In this activity related to rotational inertia (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Microgravity), learners will use a bit of scientific experimenting to test if open-faced peanut butter sandwi

In this activity, learners drop impactors onto layers of graham crackers!

This activity was designed for blind learners, but all types of learners can use it to investigate heterogeneous and homogeneous mixtures and solutions, identify the differences, and explore the conce

DNA is the thread of life. Encoded in its genetic sequence is the information that makes each of us unique. This activity allows you to see long, stringy strands of DNA extracted from wheat germ.

Through this nutrition activity (page 5 of the PDF), learners will understand—and probably be surprised by—how big serving sizes of various foods should be.

Learners write an invisible message using lemon juice on a piece of paper. They then develop the message by soaking the paper in a dilute iodine solution.

In this activity (on page 14 of PDF), learners use a pan full of flour and some rocks to create a moonscape.

This is an activity about friction as well as kinetic and potential energy.

In this introductory activity and demonstration, learners are introduced to the concept that different substances react chemically in characteristic ways.

This chocolate chip cookie recipe includes templates for baking night sky constellations of the season right on top! Two templates are included, one for 9pm mid-April, and one for 10pm mid-July.

In this experiment, learners test multiple food items to see if they are an acid or base using an indicator solution created with red cabbage.

In this chemistry activity, learners will learn how to make their own pH indicator using cabbage leaves, and then test common household items with their homemade indicator.

In this activity, learners separate the protein from milk and and use it to make their own glue.
