Learners construct a rocket from a balloon propelled along a guide string.

In this activity, learners will explore the dynamics of air pressure by using a candle, a cup, and a dish of water.

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.

In this activity, learners find out why some mineral sunblock rubs in clear. Learners compare nano and non-nano sunblocks and discover how particle size affects visibility.

This is an online game that explores speed, range and momentum. Learners will pick the winners in a 16-team tournament in 3 events: Tug-o-war, sprint, and marathon.

Learners build simple catapults and use them to launch cotton balls.

In this activity, learners create their own obstacle course based on Bernoulli's Principle and try to get a floating ball from the start of their course to the finish line.

Many germs spread by our hands, and often times, people don't wash their hands well enough to get rid of germs.

In this activity, learners will imagine the challenges and opportunities of asteroid mining.

Challenge popular misconceptions, learners explore how a mirror actually reflects an image in this activity.

In this activity, learners explore motion and airflow by setting two aluminum cans on their side and blowing air in-between them.

This activity introduces the idea of "divide and conquer" using a fictitious but serious problem--a pair of dirty socks has accidentally been wrapped in one of the presents that Santa is about to deli

In this activity, learners will code an algorithm to make it through a maze.

In this interactive game, learners compare their music-listening skills with that of a three-month-old baby.

In this activity, learners will take a step back and learn the history of the land they live on, and the people who used to live on it.

In this activity, learners determine whether thermal energy can be used for work.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners build a scale model of the universe with little more than adding machine tape.

In this activity, learners construct a rocket powered by the pressure generated from an effervescing antacid tablet reacting with water, and build a launch pad for their rocket.

In this experiment, learners examine how pressure affects water flow. In small groups, learners work with water and a soda bottle, and then relate their findings to pressure in the deep ocean.

In this activity, learners explore the engineering design process and the basic mechanics behind building bridges as they build one themselves using gumdrops and toothpicks.
