In this activity, learners will build a design and build a place for pollinators to drink from.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of permeability to better understand why amphibians are extremely sensitive to pollution.

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 activity, learners will be working with a sort of scientific magic, capillary action! They will set up 3 cups of water of different colors, connect them with paper towels and wait.

Learners make bell bracelets, place them on their wrists or ankles, and then dance to the rhythms and sounds the bells make. Many cultures use ankle or wrist bells to make music during dancing.

In this activity, learners discover that a material can act differently when it's nanometer-sized.

In this activity, learners play a game and use pattern blocks to explore mirror images and reflection.

In this activity about tangrams, learners print and cut out their own tangram shapes and solve puzzles by fitting these geometric pieces together in a variety of ways.

In this tabletop board game, players will represent a team of scientists and engineers sending a spacecraft on a mission to space.

In this activity, learners explore and compare the buoyant properties of materials found in nature and in human-made materials.

In this activity, learners will dissect a pumpkin or winter squash to learn the parts of the plant. This activity gets your learner hands on with every part of the plant and will be messy.

In this activity, learners explore temperature changes from chemical reactions by mixing urea with water in one flask and mixing calcium chloride with water in another flask.

In this activity, learners will experiment with textures, shapes, and materials and create their own unique masterpieces.

In this activity, learners prepare four polymer elastomers and then compare their physical properties, such as texture, color, size, and bounce height.

In this activity, learners will learn about a person they admire (famous, family or otherwise) or even themselves and create a life-sized silhouette.

In this activity, learners build bridges using paper and explore how much weight each bridge design can support.

In this activity, learners investigate different types of bird beaks using household items which mimic different beak examples.

In this activity, learners build bridges and cantilevers in a series of "building out" challenges with straws and pins.

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

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners explore the difference between telescope magnification and resolution.
