In this outdoor activity/field trip, learners investigate the special shapes, holding structures and holding behaviors that real organisms use in streams, rivers, creeks or coast intertidal zones to a

This experiment is designed to illustrate how fluids, including water, have the ability to flow.

In this outdoor activity, learners compare the moisture released from different kinds of leaves and from different parts of the same leaf, by observing the color change of cobalt chloride paper.

In this activity, learners experiment with surface tension using everyday household items such as strawberry baskets, paperclips, liquid dish soap, and pepper.

This Exploratorium activity can be used in many contexts because geysers are great opportunities for learning about heat and temperature changes as well as geological/space science phenomena.

In this activity, learners conduct a simple experiment to see how electrically charged things like plastic attract electrically neutral things like water.

In this activity, learners use a laser pointer to project a microscopic image of a liquid sample suspended from the tip of a syringe.

Where rainwater goes after the rain stops? And why there are rivers and lakes in some parts of the land but not in others?

In this outdoor activity, learners race small boats, made of cork, balsa wood, popsicle sticks etc., to investigate the rate and direction of currents in a stream or creek.

In this activity, learners will explore how a hydrometer works by building a working model and conducting experiments.

When it rains, water can collect on top of and seep into the ground. Water can also run downhill, carrying soil and pollution with it.

Water on Earth is in lakes, the ocean, rivers, underground, and frozen glaciers.

Glare from the sun and ripples from the wind can make it hard to see what's below the surface of a body of water.

In this activity, learners explore Boyle's Law and discover that water will boil at room temperature if its pressure is lowered.

Lakes, streams and other freshwater bodies are a habitat for lots of living things, big and small.

In this activity, learners use the design thinking process to design and build their own aqueduct, or water bridge.

In this activity, learners use objects they find on a nature and water to make creative frozen sculptures.

Water treatment on a large scale enables the supply of clean drinking water to communities.

How do scientists measure how clear or murky water in a lake is? How does water clarity (clearness) affect what lives in the lake?

Water sticks to all kinds of things in nature — flowers, leaves, spider webs - and doesn't stick to others, such as a duck's back.
