In this activity, learners will explore probability using dice. They will predict and then roll the dice to observe how many rolls it would take to repeat a matching pair. Learn track predictions vs.

Learners observe different paper samples under ordinary room light and under a black light to learn some of the chemical differences between different types of paper.

In this activity, learners will use their nose to sniff out hidden scents using extracts and cotton balls. Activity includes materials list, game instructions, STEM connections and more.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF) features a recipe to create the stretchy polymer Flubber from Borax detergent, white glue, and water.

In this activity (2nd activity on the page), learners explore the sensitivity of their sense of touch.

In this activity, learners build scaled-down structures and cantilevers in a series of "building out" challenges with bamboo skewers and tape.

In this activity (5th activity on the page), learners explore how what you see influences taste. In experiment 1, learners taste five sodas, one of which is clear soda with orange food coloring.

In this activity, learners combine two substances (plaster of Paris and water) to make a cast of an object's imprint in clay.

In this math game (Page 9 of the Are You Game? PDF), learners determine what makes a spinner fair or unfair. Learners first play a round with a pre-made spinner that isn't very fair.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of PDF under Nasturtium Leaves Activity) about surface tension.

Learners add calcium chloride to a baking soda solution and observe an increase in temperature along with the production of a gas and a white precipitate. These are all signs of a chemical reaction.

In this activity, learners will create their own bubble solution. Learners will explore chemistry, geometry and trial and error through this activity.

How far can you see out of the corner of your eye? Grab a partner and find out from the Exploratorium Science Snack.

In this group activity, learners act out key stages of the "ocean carbon cycle" (also known as the "carbonate buffer system") through motions, rearranging blocks and team tasks.

In this activity, learners make a barometer, an instrument to measure change in air pressure.

In this math puzzle game, learners work together to use algebraic reasoning and fun clues for solving word puzzles.

This warm weather activity introduces learners to the impact trees have on blocking the sun's heat and reducing temperature on the Earth's surface.

In this simulation, learners model two elephant seal populations and how they change over time. Learners start with cards representing a variety of seals.

Make your own speaker with a magnet, wire, and paper cup! If you have a radio with a headphone plug and an old pair of headphones, this is a great tinkering activity.

Learners test their "light-smarts" by playing a game called "Light Quest!" The game board represents an atom and each player represents an electron that has been bumped into the atom's outer unstable
