Learners explore three-dimensional geometric frames including cubes and tetrahedrons, as they create bubble wands with pipe cleaners and drinking straws.

In this activity, young learners will explore shapes, textures, and geometries using household materials.

In this activity, caregivers and young learners work together to craft and talk about shapes and relative positions of such shapes by creating a mobile.

This activity gets learners looking at 6-sided shapes in nature, including the cells of a beehive, as well as other shapes.

In this activity, learners will build the highest tower they can out of recycled materials.

In this activity, learners play a game and use pattern blocks to explore mirror images and reflection.

In this craft activity, learners create a string of cut-out moons and stars.

In this activity (located on page 10 of the PDF), learners explore the properties of spraying and dripping water, while making art.

In this activity, learners will explore two-dimensional shapes that are found in three-dimensional shapes. Learners will explore geometry, design, color and tool use through this activity.

In this activity, learners follow clues to find five puzzle pieces, then assemble them. This activity works well with a whole group, individuals, or families.

In this classic memory game (on pages 37-45 of PDF), learners turn over tiles to reveal images on the back.

In this activity (on pages 49-54 of PDF), learners play with tangrams, a set of triangles, squares and a parallelogram that can combine into a larger square as well as all sorts of other shapes.

Is a square stronger than a triangle? Use tongue depressors to build simple shapes. Then apply a little weight to them and see what happens!

Create your own spinning top, and explore color, shapes and spinning. This activity contains instructions for making your spinning top, and tips on how to design and decorate it.

In this math activity, learners experiment with the concept of symmetry.

Learners grow sugar crystals (rock candy). They make a hot solution that has an excess of sugar dissolved in it, then as the solution cools, they see sugar crystals form.

In this math lesson, learners explore tessellations through literature, music, writing, and art activities.

In this activity, learners use things from the kitchen as building materials to explore how shapes contribute to the strength of different structures.

This is an activity about discovering the colors and beauty of nature. Learners will spend time outdoors, matching paint chip samples, colored paper, or colors of clothing to those found in nature.

In this set of outdoor games, learners increase their awareness of the outdoor environment by going on a scavenger hunt and an out-of-place hunt.
