In this activity, learners explore the possibilities of clay as a natural material.

In this activity, learners use Starburst® candy to sort, classify, compare, and graph. Learners grab a handful of one-inch candy squares, sort them by color, graph the candy, and discuss the results.

In this engineering design challenge, learners make a bubble maze that allows bubbles to move through a series of “on” and “off” switches.

Learners and their families celebrate and recognize the importance of making healthy choices every day by participating in a health fair.

In this math lesson, learners rotate through various centers while comparing and ordering objects according to length.

In this activity, learners will create beautiful greeting cards by marbling with shaving cream and food dye. They will explore the chemistry behind the art of marbling.

In this engineering design challenge, learners build an octopus-inspired suction pad that can grab an object and hold it tightly in the air.

In this outdoor activity and observation game, learners hunt for a variety of textures, colors, odors and evidence of organisms in the activity site.

In this activity, learners set up a night time insect observation station with a light and sheet.

In this activity learners will plant grass seed and track the growth of the grass over time.

In this activity about dinosaurs, learners explore how and why fossils form. First, learners are introduced to dinosaur fossils by reading the book "Bones, Bones, Dinosaur Bones" by Byron Barton.

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

In this activity, young learners investigate magnets. Learners discover that some magnets are stronger than others and that magnets have north and south poles.

In this activity, learners create a colorful foam fountain by adding yeast to a chemical reaction. This activity introduces chemical reactions to young learners and teaches the concept of catalysts.

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.

Learners experiment with a commercially available liquid-crystal coaster. They warm the material with their hands for varying lengths of time and observe the changing colors that result.

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

In this activity, learners use their sense of smell to explore the world on the nanoscale.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of insulation by trying to keep Olaf the Snowman from melting. This activity encourages critical thinking and problem solving.

In this activity (located on page 10 of the PDF), learners explore the properties of spraying and dripping water, while making art.
