In this activity about ramps, learners explore and measure the rate at which spherical objects roll down a ramp.

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.

In this fun hands-on activity, learners whip up a batch of cyber-dough (play dough) using math for measurements.

In this engineering design challenge, learners animate a facial expression and make a machine (zoetrope) that plays the animation back.

Make a rattle-like musical instrument! Shake it, hit it, spin it any way you want to!

In this activity, caregivers and young learners work together to craft and talk about shapes and relative positions of such shapes by creating a mobile.

In this activity, learners make a paper model of a polymer, then make Silly Putty, an actual polymer.

The goal of this activity is to design, build and test a house or toy for an animal.

In this activity about friction and gravity (page seven of the pdf), learners use toy racing cars to explore how the two forces affect the motion of objects.

In this engineering activity (page 5 of PDF), young learners investigate how materials and design contribute to the strength of a structure, particularly walls.

In this math game, learners solve a mind-twisting puzzle using dominoes. Use this activity to help learners practice counting, adding, and solving problems.

In this activity, learners will create their own lava lamps. Learners will explore density, effervescence and chemistry through this activity.

Learners use a commercially available toy to experiment with density. They fill a chamber in the toy submarine with baking powder and release it into a tank of water.

In this activity, learners are challenged to create a parachute using easily sourced materials in order to transport a LEGO figure safely to the ground.

In this activity, learners will create an optical illusion top. Learners will explore color mixing, physics and design through this activity.

Break open that used musical toy and squish some Play-Doh over the circuit boards, and you will hear some weird and distorted sounds the manufacturer never intended!

In this activity, young learners will learn about moon phases using materials found at home. This activity is adapted using play dough and cups to avoid food allergens and waste.

In this math activity, learners pretend there is a special store that lets you pay for toys by their height in pennies.

In this activity, learners will build ramps and test how the laws of physics apply do different objects. Learners will explore physics and cause and effect through this activity.

In this Bob the Builder(TM)-themed activity, learners explore the 3Rs (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) by rotating through several activity stations.
