In this activity (7th activity on the page), learners use their sense of hearing to find a "sound match." Learners shake containers filled with items like dry seeds, sand, beans, etc.

Use this activity (10th on the page) to help learners explore memory and how sometimes your brain makes up its own memories. Learners will read and try to remember the words in list #1.

Learners use two mirrors to explore how images of images of images can repeat forever.

In this activity (12th on the page), learners investigate their ability to discriminate (see) different colors.

In this activity, learners calculate the width (horizontal diameter) of the blind spot on their retina. Learners make a blind spot tester using a piece of notebook paper.

In this game (4th activity on the page) about hearing, learners test their ability to identify various sounds without looking.

In this simple exploratory activity (1st activity on the page), blindfolded learners try to identify mystery items by smell.

In this activity about olfaction (9th activity on the page), learners smell 10 different items with different odors, including some edible food items.

In this activity about light and reflection, learners discover that what you see is often affected by what you expect to see.

In this neuroscience activity (4th activity on the page), learners make their own set of Von Frey hairs to test detection thresholds.

In this activity about olfaction (8th activity on the page), learners smell 10 different items with different odors. Then they try to identify the smells when they are mixed together.

In this activity (12th activity on the page), learners conduct an experiment to demonstrate how muscles are constantly feeding information to the brain about what they are doing.

In this activity (14th activity on the page) about the sense of touch, learners examine if it is easier or harder to identify an object if they move their hands over it.

In this activity (4th activity on the page), learners test to see if saliva is necessary for food to have taste.

In this activity (2nd activity on the page), learners explore how the nose is responsible for part of the flavor we taste in food.

In this activity, learners explore reaction time and challenge themselves to improve their coordination. Do you want to move faster? Catch that ball that you never seem to see in time?

In this activity, learners explore how their depth perception would be affected if they only had one eye. Learners work in pairs and attempt to drop a penny in a cup with one eye covered.

In this optics activity, learners make a lens and explore how the eye manipulates the light that enters it.

This activity (8th activity on the page) tests learners' ability to identify things using only the sense of hearing.

In this neuroscience activity (5th activity on the page), learners explore their sense of touch without using their senses of vision and hearing.
