Look-alike Liquids
Source Institutions
Learners add drops of four liquids (water, alcohol, salt water, and detergent solution) to different surfaces and observe the liquids' behavior.

Traveling Through Different Liquids
Source Institutions
Learners observe and record what happens when they manipulate bottles containing a liquid (water or corn syrup) and one or more objects (screw, nail, paper clip).

Exploring How Liquids Behave
Source Institutions
Learners apply their knowledge from a previous study to identify different liquids--water, corn syrup, and vegetable oil.

Exploring Liquids
Source Institutions
Young learners investigate and observe the properties of three liquids -- water, vegetable oil, and corn syrup. They use their senses to collect data and ask and answer questions.

Toy Chemistry
Source Institutions
In this playful, goopy activity, learners mix two liquids to create a solid (that sometimes acts like a liquid ), using basic household materials such as borax and glue.

Guar Gum Slime
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners create a gelatinous slime using guar gum powder and borax. Educators can use this simple activity to introduce learners to colloids.

Temperature Affects the Solubility of Gases
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners heat and cool carbonated water to find out whether temperature has an effect on how fast the dissolved gas leaves carbonated water.

Using Color to See How Liquids Combine
Source Institutions
Learners add different liquids (water, salt water, alcohol, and detergent solution) to water and observe the different ways the different liquids combine with water.

Filtering
Source Institutions
Make a quick and easy filter from household materials. A filter will catch any solids suspended in a liquid and filter them out. By using a filter, learners can discover amazing things.

Make a Salt Volcano (Lava Lite)
Source Institutions
This activity about density provides instructions for making a miniature "lava lite" with just salt, oil, water, and food coloring.

Sweet Speedway
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners test different food items by timing how long it takes each liquid to slide from the top of a ramp to the bottom.

Dissolving a Substance in Different Liquids
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make colored sugar and add it to water, alcohol, and oil to discover some interesting differences in dissolving.

Dissolving Different Liquids in Water
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners add different liquids to water and apply their working definition of “dissolving” to their observations.

Dangling Magnet
Source Institutions
In this activity about magnetism (page 13 of the pdf), learners will experiment with magnets to explore how water and other liquids affect the strength of magnetic fields.
