Investigate a flower's power of marketing by making an imitation flower that successfully signals a bee (or other pollinator of your choice) to visit.

In this activity, young learners will explore light and darkness through flashlight play.

This is a simple activity fully driven by imagination. Using materials from the home, toys, or items from nature, learners create their own world to play with.

In this math activity, learners use a variety of sensory modalities to gain experiences with identifying, describing and creating repeating patterns.

In this activity, learners discover how frogs' bodies change while growing from a tadpole to a frog. Learners create a simple craft that gives a visual display of the metamorphosis process.

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

In this activity (7th activity on the page), learners use their sense of hearing to find a "sound match." Learners shake containers filled with items like dry seeds, sand, beans, etc.

In this activity learners will create paint out of natural materials. Explore your natural world (or your fridge) and find berries, leaves, or flowers to find a great base for your paint.

In this activity, learners explore how their sense of smell affects their taste buds. Learners taste different flavored jelly beans while holding their nose.

In this activity, learners examine body parts (including skin, scales, and skulls) from fish, mammals and reptiles. Questions are provided to help encourage learner investigations.

In this activity, learners discover why some nanoscale science and technology is done in the controlled environment of a clean room, what clean rooms are like, and how scientists help keep the clean r

In this activity, learners discover how bats use echolocation to get information about objects in their environment. During the activity, one learner whispers into a tube.

In this arts and crafts activity about animals and animal characteristics, learners will design animal hats and role-play as animals.

In this activity, learners sniff out scents hidden in balloons! After investigating, learners discover we sometimes can use another sense (smell) to detect things too small to see.

In this activity, learners use their imaginations and experiment with different materials to create bug hats.

In this activity, learners investigate circulation and measure their own your heartbeat. A heart rate, or pulse, is the number of times the heart beats per minute.

In this math lesson, learners explore the concept of using units to measure length. Learners first read "How Big is a Foot" by Rolf Myller and learn about units.

In this activity, learners listen to a story and tell a story of their own as they learn about the importance of elders in Native American cultures.

In this activity, the learner will experiment with the physics of sound production while making a sound making toy. The activity includes a video with step by step instructions.

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