Protect That BRAIN!: Mr. Egghead
Source Institutions
This activity demonstrates the importance of wearing a helmet to protect the brain. An egg is used to symbolize a head with the shell as the skull and the inside of the egg as the brain.

Solar System Bead Distance
Source Institutions
In this astronomy activity, learners create a model of the solar system using beads and string.

Loony Balloons
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners investigate how changing the center of gravity of a balloon affects how it travels. Learners fill a balloon with a little bit of water and insert into an empty balloon.

Magical Match
Source Institutions
In this demonstration, learners will be "wowed" as three matches burn to form a triangular pyramid shape and "magically" rise off the table.

Moonlight Serenade
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners act as the Earth and observe how different angles between the Sun, Earth, and Moon affect the phases of the moon we see each month.

Springs and Stomachs
Source Institutions
In this demonstration, learners investigate mass, gravity, and acceleration by dropping a wooden bar with a balloon attached to its underside, a mass suspended from it by rubber bands, and a sharp-poi

Natural Selection of Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria
Source Institutions
In this activity (p.3-4 of PDF), learners learn about disease transmission and antibiotic resistance.

Common Scents
Source Institutions
Learners use a mortar and pestle to extract clove oil from cloves using denatured alcohol. They put this oil on paper, which they can take home.

Floating Candles
Source Institutions
In this chemistry activity, learners observe a combustion reaction and deduce the components necessary for the reaction to occur.

Mountain Mash
Source Institutions
Learners model the processes that formed some of Earth's largest mountain ranges: the Himalayas, the Andes, and the Alps.

Valves and Pumps: A Demonstration
Source Institutions
This is a demonstration you can use to show learners how valves and pumps work in concert to move blood through the circulatory system.
Become a Master of Inertia
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore inertia as they attempt to whip a strip of paper out from under two coins dangling on the rim of a water glass.

Parabolas: It's All Done with Mirrors
Source Institutions
In this activity about light and reflection, learners use a special device called a Mirage Maker™ to create an illusion.

Dress Like a Frog
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will discover what it takes to be a frog. By dressing up like one, learners can visualize how each part of the frog plays an important role in surviving its habitat.

Red, White and Blue I Demonstration
Source Institutions
In this chemistry demonstration, learners observe a chemical reaction that produces a colorful effect.

DNA Nanotechnology
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), a nanoscale structure that occurs in nature.

One In The Hand
Source Institutions
In this physics demonstration, learners are challenged to break a raw egg just by squeezing it. Learners will be shocked by their inability to complete the deceivingly simple challenge.

Washing Air
Learners observe and discuss a simple model of a wet scrubber, a device for cleaning industrial air pollution.

Mind-Reading Magic
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners recreate a method of detecting and correcting errors in computers called 'parity'.

Egg-Citing Physics
Source Institutions
In this demonstration about momentum, use physics to distinguish between a hard-boiled egg and a raw egg without cracking them open.
