In this yummy chemistry activity which requires adult supervision, learners use sugar and water to explore how crystals form.

"Nature of Dye" allows participants to create their own dyes and art while exploring how chemicals interact and how these interactions can have real-world applications.

In this hands-on activity, learners determine the types of chemical reactions achieved when combining different household products.

In "Chemistry Makes Scents," participants use their noses to distinguish between chemicals with very similar structures.

Learners observe a bottle containing water and oil. They are invited to pick up the bottle and mix the contents together.

In "Chemistry is Colorful" learners explore different materials through paper chromatography.

"Molecules in Motion" explores how materials behave and change in a vacuum.

In this activity, learners will create their own lava lamps. Learners will explore density, effervescence and chemistry through this activity.

Learners mix a solution of luminol with hydrogen peroxide to produce a reaction that gives off blue light.

Learners compare the properties of two balls that appear identical. One ball bounces, while the other ball "thuds." The “bounce” ball is made of the polymer polybutadiene (-C4H4-).

Learners observe a sealed container holding a clear colorless liquid. They shake the container and the fluid turns blue. When allowed to sit for a few moments, the fluid turns colorless again.

"Sublimation Bubbles" allows learners to explore how some solid materials, such as dry ice, can phase change directly from their solid to gaseous form.

"What's in the Water" lets participants use tools to solve the mystery- what chemicals and compounds are in a sample of water?

Learners observe different paper samples under ordinary room light and under a black light to learn some of the chemical differences between different types of paper.

In this activity, learners will create a drawing with dry erase markers and watch it come to life. Learners will explore chemistry, art and storytelling through this activity.
