In this activity, learners are challenged to lift a floating ice cube out of a glass of water using just one end of a piece of string.

In this activity, learners of all ages can become food scientists by experimenting with flour and water to make basic pasta.

This activity offers learners and their families several ways to raise their awareness together about home water.

No glue is needed for learners of any age to become marshmallow architects or engineers.

In this simulation activity, learners observe what can happen when ocean waves churn up water and oil from an oil spill.

In this activity, learners use found natural materials to create a water haven for bees and other insects.

This is an activity/demo in which learners are exposed to the difference bewteen hydrophobic surfaces (water repelling) and hydrophilic surfaces (water loving).

In this activity, learners see how many coins they can add to a full glass of water before the water overflows.

Test the buoyancy of an aluminum foil boat and an aluminum foil ball. Why does the same material in different shapes sink or float?

In this activity, learners use the design thinking process to design and build their own aqueduct, or water bridge.

Glare from the sun and ripples from the wind can make it hard to see what's below the surface of a body of water.

In this activity, learners act as water molecules and travel through parts of the water cycle to discover that it is more complex than just water moving from the ground to the atmosphere.

In this activity, learners consider the water features they might enjoy at a community park--a pond, brook, water playground (or "sprayground"), or pool--and what happens to the water over time.

In this activity, learners explore healthy choices related to the liquids they drink. The importance of water and milk as essential nutrients for a healthy body is the focus of the experience.

In this activity, learners explore in what ways the shape of the land and the pull of gravity influence how water moves over Earth.

In this activity, learners create a biosphere in a baggie.

In this activity, learners use water, oil, and food coloring to observe a chemical reaction that creates a shower of colors inside of a glass.

In this activity, learners use objects they find on a nature and water to make creative frozen sculptures.

In this physics activity (page 10 of the PDF), learners will explore how energy from moving water can be used.

In this activity, learners create secret messages using a candle. Learners discover that watercolor paint is attracted to some materials, like paper fibers, but not others, like oil.
