In this craft activity, learners will compare and contrast the major functions of plants and animals.

In this activity, learners explore the unseen force of friction and how surfaces can slow moving objects at different rates.

Learners use filter paper and water to analyze six different markers. They mark the paper with ink, and dip the paper in water. The water travels up the paper and dissolved ink travels with it.

Learners combine counting, multiples, and number patterns with jumping up and down. To start, pick a counting number.

Build a pinwheel that works without wind! This activity contains steps on how to build a parachuting pinwheel out of paper, a film canister, and some brads.

Can you deceive your eyes? When your eyes work normally, you see a nice 3 dimensional picture, but what happens when each eye sees something different?

In this activity, learners will explore how density is affected by temperature and how that can create currents.

In this activity, learners find out what happens when they cover leaves with pieces of black construction paper. This activity shows learners that plants need sunlight to survive.

In this activity, learners make a parachute out of tissue paper, tape, and string. Then, learners test their parachute to see how many paper clips it can carry.

In this experiment, learners design and build a model room in a shoebox and furnish it with tiny furniture.

In this math game, learners toss plastic cups to land just right and collect points to win.

In this math activity, learners make and explore patterns using the letters in their names, a grid, and some colors.

In this math activity, learners sort patterns into similar "families" or groups that have the same pattern, but different symbols.

This is a quick and simple demonstration about reflexes (second activity on the page).

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

Learners make slime from white school glue and Borax detergent. The long chain molecules of the white glue become cross-linked by the Borax into a big network.

En esta actividad, los aprendices experimentarán con las tres fases del agua. Intentarán controlar la rapidez de los cambios de estado al manipular la temperatura y la presión del agua, hielo, y gas.

In this activity, learners will practice writing while making a fun messy craft. Learners will explore texture and color as well as develop writing and fine motor skills through this activity.

A simple, yet fun activity that lets learners find the center of balance of a ruler (or any long thin object). Developed by the Exploratorium and no assembly needed.

Experiment with force and pressure by building a balloon rocket. When launched, the balloon will run a track wherever you place the string.
