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

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

Build a Bell Bracelet
Source Institutions
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.

Soapy Boat
Source Institutions
Learners discover that soap can be used to power a boat. Learners make a simple, flat boat model, put it in water, and then add a drop of detergent at the back of the boat.

Rollin’ Rollin' Rollin'
Source Institutions
In this physics activity (page 12 of the PDF), learners explore potential and kinetic energy by rolling different sized marbles down an inclined plane.

Tall Tower Challenge
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will use their chosen material to build the tallest tower possible in under three minutes. This activity uses problem solving and fine motor skills to challenge learners.

Story Stones
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will exercise their imaginations and artistic skills. Appropriate for all ages, learners will create unique pieces to jumpstart storytelling sessions.

Bubbularium: See the Colors in Bubbles
Source Institutions
With little more than a flashlight, a straw, and a plastic lid, make an observatory so you can see the amazing colors in bubbles.

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

Animal Guess Who
Source Institutions
In this game, learners take turns guessing toy animals from around their house based on the toy's characteristics.

Hoop Glider
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will experiment with the physics of flight by making a gliding contraption with strange looking wings. The activity explores flight with connections to the natural world.

Balancing Act
Source Institutions

In this activity, learners will make a marionette puppet and put on a show. Learners will explore color, design, fabrication and storytelling through this activity.

Toma Todo
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners play a traditional Mexican game of chance with a twist. Learners take turns spinning a special "Toma Todo" top.

Property Sort
Source Institutions
In this activity, young learners will describe objects by their properties and sort by color, weight and texture. This activity uses household items and toys for materials.

Bubble Sculpting
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners develop spatial reasoning skills as they blow bubbles and observe what happens when the bubbles connect.

That's the Way the Ball Bounces: Level 1
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners prepare four polymer elastomers and then compare their physical properties, such as texture, color, size, and bounce height.
