Testing magnets is always a fun pastime, but here, we're going beyond "will it attract the magnet?" In this activity, learners will investigate which materials allow magnetic fields to pass through or

In this activity, learners will create an optical illusion top. Learners will explore color mixing, physics and design through this activity.

During this activity, learners will make different versions of "ooze" using varied proportions of detergent and glue.

In this activity, learners explore atoms as the smallest building blocks of matter. With adult help, learners start by dividing play dough in half, over and over again.

Birds' beaks are designed to allow birds to get the most of whatever food they need. In this activity, learners get an idea of how different beak shapes suit different food sources.

In this activity (located on page 5 of PDF), learners work in groups to create dig sites for display.

In this activity, learners will build thier own balance scale. Learners will explore weight and comparison through this activity.

In this activity (located on page 3 of the PDF), learners investigate the way water moves and how we can control and direct water.

In this physics activity, learners will explore buoyancy.

In this nutrition activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will record their food consumption for one day, and then evaluate how their actual diet matched up with the recommended diet.

In this activity, learners build large-scale structures and cantilevers in a series of "building out" challenges with garden poles and tape.

Everybody loves bubbles, and this is the best bubble recipe ever!

Learners observe the outside and inside of raw chicken eggs, record descriptions, and hypothesize what will happen when a facilitator drops an egg on the floor.

In this game, learners take turns guessing toy animals from around their house based on the toy's characteristics.

In this activity, learners use their senses to collect information about a fruit and record their findings in a Science Journal.

In this activity, learners create a map of a hidden surface using a "sounding stick" -- a technique similar to how underwater maps were once made.

In this hands-on activity, learners build their own kaleidoscopes and explore how light can reflect of off surfaces such as mirrors, to produce beautiful patterns.

Learners will do an experiment to determine which type of paper is strongest while focusing on variables and collecting data.

In this activity about human anatomy (page 16 of PDF), learners construct a model arm and discover how muscles and bones work together to achieve efficient movement.

In this activity learners will build roller coasters and test them using small balls or marbles.
