Create a chemical reaction that makes cheese! This hands-on activity demonstrates that molecules and atoms are tiny particles that make up everything around us.

In this activity, young learners will explore light and darkness through flashlight play.

This is a simple and fun activity for learners to explore water and colors.

In this activity, learners will use Google Sky to observe features of the night sky and share their observations.

In this activity, learners cut out a fish and then "paint" it using universal indicator and acids and bases.

In this activity, learners investigate the behavior of magnets. Learners create a "wonder wand" with a magnet so they can move a skater around.

In this two part activity, learners become draft detectives by constructing their own draft catchers to detect drafts around windows or doors.

In this activity, learners discover that the way a material behaves on the macroscale is affected by its structure on the nanoscale.

In this activity, learners discover how bats use echolocation to get information about objects in their environment. During the activity, one learner whispers into a tube.

Learners trace, cut out and fly a boomerang, outdoors or in a large indoor space.

This open-ended art project allows learners to create their own colorful ice sculpture by using rock salt and food coloring on a solid block of ice.

In this up-cycling activity, learners recycle plastic bags and repurpose them into useful wallets.

In this chemistry challenge, learners identify an unknown white powder by comparing it with common household powders.

In this chemistry challenge, learners identify which plants have the enzyme "catalase" that breaks hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen.

In this activity about gravity (page eight of the pdf), learners will very simply explore how gravity affects objects using balls and toys.

Learners smell balloons filled with different scents to guess what's inside. From this, they infer the presence and motion of scented molecules.

Learners apply their knowledge from a previous study to identify different liquids--water, corn syrup, and vegetable oil.

In this chemistry challenge, learners discover that many chemical reactions involve heat loss or gain.

In this activity/demo about piezoelectricity, learners discover how some crystals produce electricity when squeezed.

In this activity/demo, learners discover how liquid nitrogen cools a creamy mixture at such a rapid rate that it precipitates super fine grained (nano) ice cream.
