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

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

In this activity, learners will explore reptile biology by taking temperature readings in various places and comparing them.

In this activity, learners of all ages will experiment with paint and printmaking.

In this collecting/comparing activity, learners work with samples of sand from different places like a lakefront, river, or ocean beach.

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

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

In this activity, learners will explore the density of an object in water. Learners will compare what happens to fruits and vegetables in regular and salt water.

Young learners investigate and observe the properties of three liquids -- water, vegetable oil, and corn syrup. They use their senses to collect data and ask and answer questions.

In this demonstration, learners observe the effects of air pressure. They will watch as marshmallows inside a bottle expand as a vacuum pump removes air from the bottle.

In this activity, learners will explore basic information about thermodynamics by experimenting with ice. Learners will compare ice melting rates on metal pans or plastic cutting boards.

In this activity, learners will be working with predictions with a time frame of one week, or longer. Start by planting seedlings.

In this health activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will discover why covering their mouth and nose while sneezing is so important.

In this engineering activity (page 3 of PDF), young learners investigate how a pole can be made stable by “planting” its base in the ground or adding supports to the base.

In this activity, learners explore acid and bases as they create their own invisible ink out of baking soda and grape juice.

In this activity about dinosaurs, learners first participate in a group discussion about where and when dinosaurs lived, how big they were, and who studies them and how.

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.

In this activity, learners observe, explore and investigate vibrating instruments in everyday places and create music in unique ways.

This is a highly visual demonstration that illustrates both the effects of density and chemical reactions.

In this sensory activity, young learners explore chemical reactions by making their own play dough from home.
