This is a hands-on activity exploring how nanoscale particles are used in mineral sunblocks to increase their transparency.

This hands-on activity demonstrates how a material can act differently when it's nanometer-sized.

This Exploratorium activity explores size and scale. Through four levels of screen sizes, learners can sort out objects of different sizes.

This is a demonstration about how nature inspires nanotechnology. It is easily adapted into a hands-on activity for an individual or groups.

In this activity, learners imagine what the world might look like if we could build an elevator to space!

In this activity, learners explore dinosaurs and fossils by creating a diorama.

In this fun sticker activity, learners will create a size wheel with images of objects of different size, from macroscopic scale (like an ant) to nanoscale (like DNA).

This is an activity in which learners will find that they can detect differences in concentration better with their nose (smelling) than with their eyes (seeing).

In this nanoscience activity, learners discover that it's easy to pour water out of a regular-sized cup, but not out of a miniature cup.
