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

This activity is on page 8 of the pdf, part of the Sea Life Discovery Box. This is an activity exploring the characteristics of fish.

In this design challenge activity, learners invent a device that will make their friends and family ask, "What's buzzing?" Learners design an alarm with an on/off switch that is small enough to hide.

In this demonstration/experiment, learners discover that different colors and materials (metals, fabrics, paints) radiate different amounts of energy and therefore, cool at different rates.

It's difficult to see convection currents in any liquid that's undergoing a temperature change, but in this Exploratorium Science Snack, you can see the currents with the help of food coloring.

En esta actividad, los aprendices leen sobre como Mateo y Cientina conducen una investigación forense para descubrir quien llevó unos dulces.

In this activity about magnetism (page 15 of the PDF), learners will explore how opposite and similar magnetic poles affect a swinging (pendulum) magnet.

In this card game, learners make two sets of three cards that are alike. Learners must justify to the rest of the players why the three cards belong in each set.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity demonstrates the shadow of the Earth as it rises as a dark blue shadow above the eastern horizon.

In this "Sid the Science Kid" activity, learners get their hands dirty by playing in a container of soil. Then they compare the effectiveness of cleaning their hands with just a paper towel vs.

In this optics activity, learners conduct an experiment to find out why two eyes are better than one!

In this activity, young learners use their sense of touch rather than sight to identify a mystery object in a bag. Learners take turns acting as "peekers" and "sensers" throughout the game.

In this activity, learners explore geometry and spatial relationships as they figure out how to arrange tables for a party.

This hands-on astronomy activity allows you to create a “cutaway” telescope to clearly show how reflector and refractor telescopes work.

This activity is designed to let learners measure their reaction time or response time to something they see.

In this activity (9th activity on the page), learners work in pairs to see how their perception of touch differs from reality.

This is an educator-led demonstration of microarray technology using a model created from a pizza box and ping-pong balls.

In this math activity, learners use cubes to calculate how many blocks it would take to build stairways with different heights.

Learners shine the light of a laser pointer through sheets of fabric that all have a different number of threads per inch.

In this activity, learners investigate different types of bird beaks using household items which mimic different beak examples.
