The Wander of Pollen
Source Institutions
In this activity/demonstration, learners explore pollen and how insects and animals transport pollen. Learners investigate and compare wind and animal pollination.

Fuzzy Worms
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore the concepts of natural selection and observable traits in a game that can be played at home.

Swirling Milk
Source Institutions
In this chemistry activity, learners prepare two petri dishes, one filled with water and one filled with milk.

Exploring Science Practices: Early Explorations
Source Institutions
This activity gives caregivers and their children an opportunity to practice scientific ways of thinking that are developmentally appropriate for early learners.

Candy Chemistry
Source Institutions
In this experiment, learners test multiple food items to see if they are an acid or base using an indicator solution created with red cabbage.

Ancient Sun Observations
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make their own Sun tracker to explore how ancient civilizations around the world studied the Sun.

Exploring Ultraviolet (UV) light from the Sun
Source Institutions
In this outdoor activity, learners explore UV rays from the Sun and ways to protect against these potentially harmful rays.

Make a Cast of a Tyrannosaurus rex Fossil
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore dinosaur fossils by making cast models of a T. rex. First, learners read about and research how dinosaur fossils form.

Water Cycle in a Bag
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners create a biosphere in a baggie.

Hand Battery
Source Institutions
In this activity about chemistry and electricity, learners form a battery by placing their hands onto plates of different metals.

Bubbles: Using Controls
In this experiment, learners use JOY liquid detergent and glycerin to make the largest bubble they can that lasts 15 seconds.

Pixel Tube
Source Institutions
In this STEAM activity, learners create a "pixel tube" to explore reflections of light and color mixing.

Recycling Paper
Source Institutions
In this crafty chemistry activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners make their own paper from used paper they may have otherwise thrown away.

Colored Shadows
Source Institutions
In this optics activity, learners discover that not all shadows are black. Learners explore human color perception by using colored lights to make additive color mixtures.

Exploring Size: Scented Solutions
Source Institutions
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).

Cutting it Down to Nano
Source Institutions
This simple activity uses paper and scissors to convey two key concepts to learners: the nanoscale is very small and working on the nanoscale requires special tools.

Lager Lamp
Source Institutions
In this demonstration, adult learners create a lava lamp using beer and nuts! Use this pub-themed activity to demonstrate the effects of buoyancy and bubbles.

Make A Spinning Top
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners design and build a toy top out of simple, everyday materials and have the option to use the toy as an artistic tool.

Balloon Car
Source Institutions
Build a car that runs on air. Using household materials, experiment with the power of air to create thrust powerful enough to move a homemade car.

Whatta Web
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners play a game to simulate the food chain.
