In this activity, learners rotate through several learning and play stations to explore dinosaurs and paleontologists.

In this activity, learners try pouring water out of a regular cup and a miniature cup. It’s harder than it sounds! Learners discover that different forces dominate at different size scales.

Learners are challenged to discover the relative densities of colored liquids to create a rainbow pattern in a test tube.

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

In this electrochemistry activity, young learners and adult helpers create a battery from a potato to run a clock.

In this activity, learners explore properties of water and watch evaporation happen by "painting" with water in the sun.

In this activity, learners find out why some mineral sunblock rubs in clear. Learners compare nano and non-nano sunblocks and discover how particle size affects visibility.

In this activity, learners test what happens when they put baking power on different frozen liquids.

Learners observe different light sources, outdoors and indoors, using prism glasses (diffraction glasses) and color filters.

In this set of outdoor games, learners increase their awareness of the outdoor environment by going on a scavenger hunt and an out-of-place hunt.

In this water activity, learners test which objects float and which sink. Learners discover that objects behave differently in water.

In this inquiry-based learning activity, learners design, build, and test their own ramps. They are introduced to a variety of materials and explore putting them together.

In this water activity, learners explore how water drops behave on different surfaces.

In this indoor and outdoor activity, learners discover that insects grow and develop as do all living things, going through a process known as complete metamorphosis.

In this water activity, learners test which objects float and which sink. Learners discover that objects behave differently in water.

In this activity, learners build magnetic towers to explore the forces and properties of magnets.

This is an activity in which learners will find that they can detect differences in concentration better with their nose (smelling) than with their eyes (seeing).

In this activity, learners create colorful bead bracelets to wear outside while searching for matching colors in plants. Learners will be surprised by the variety of colors in nature.

This is an activity in which learners explore the effects of gravity, motion and momentum while creating art.

In this nanoscience activity, learners discover that it's easy to pour water out of a regular-sized cup, but not out of a miniature cup.
