In this nutrition activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will record their food consumption for one day, and then evaluate how their actual diet matched up with the recommended diet.

Learners observe the outside and inside of raw chicken eggs, record descriptions, and hypothesize what will happen when a facilitator drops an egg on the floor.

In this activity (2nd activity on the page), learners explore how the nose is responsible for part of the flavor we taste in food.

In this activity, learners will estimate how many seeds are in a fruit or vegetable, then count to find out. The result: mix estimation with healthy eating.

Make snack time into measuring time and learn to read Nutrition Facts labels. Try this when you’re using “pourable” foods, such as cereal, yoghurt, or juice.

Does yeast breathe? Find out by watching how plastic bags filled with yeast, warm water and different amounts of sugar change over time.

This is a series of three quick science activities to do with a spoon, knife, and fork. In the first two activities, learners use the flatware to explore optics, mirrors, reflection, and distortion.

In this chemistry activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners make a layered drink with liquids of different densities.

In this activity, learners observe how salinity affects the freezing point of water by making and enjoying ice cream.

Learners write an invisible message using lemon juice on a piece of paper. They then develop the message by soaking the paper in a dilute iodine solution.

Using a milk-based recipe, learners create "moo glue" which is basically white school-type glue. The "secret ingredient" in milk that helps make glue is a chemical called casein.

In this activity, learners use gumdrops and toothpicks to model the composition and molecular structure of three greenhouse gases: carbon dioxide (CO2), water vapor (H2O) and methane (CH4).

In this chemistry activity, learners use the lowered freezing point of water to chill another mixture (ice cream) to the solid state.

Learners analyze candy-coated sweets using chromatography. Learners use this method to separate the various dyes used to make colored candy.

In this construction activity, students use a 2-liter bottle to build a fly trap.

In this a hands-on activity, learners explore how to put ice cream in an oven without it melting. Ideas in this activity include insulation and cooking.

In this physics demonstration, learners are challenged to insert a straw the furthest into a potato.

This lesson gives full instructions for making cabbage juice indicator, a procedure sheet for learners to record observations as they use the indicator to test materials, and extension activities to d

In this activity, learners examine the properties of different seaweeds, investigate what happens when powdered seaweed (alginate) is added to water, and learn about food products made with seaweed.

Learners design their own experiment to determine which M&M color dissolves the fastest in water.
