Soapy Boats
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will explore surface tension, what it is, and how we can change it.

For the Birds
Source Institutions
In this outdoor activity, learners turn the fun of feeding wild birds into an investigation of bird behavior.

The Old White Sheet Trick: Light and Insect Behavior
Source Institutions
In this outdoor, nighttime activity, learners gather around a brightly lit, white surface and study the behavior of nocturnal animals attracted to the light, particularly night fliers.

Push Me a Grape
Source Institutions
In this physics activity, learners experiment with the attractive and repulsive power of magnets.

Rip It Up And Start Again - Composting
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will experiment to find how long it takes to compost paper. They will create their own compost container and test different variables.

Horton Senses Something Small
Source Institutions
In this story time program, young learners listen to the Dr.

Design a Seed
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will design a seed and test how it travels. Learners will use the Engineering Design Process to create a seed which can move from place to place.

Round, Light and Hollow
Source Institutions
In this activity about bones (page 12 of PDF), learners investigate and compare the weight-bearing capacity of solid and hollow cylinders.

Stomp Rockets
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will build a stomp-powered launcher to blast off paper rockets they design. Materials can be found at a local hardware store or you may already have them at home.

Property Sort
Source Institutions
In this activity, young learners will describe objects by their properties and sort by color, weight and texture. This activity uses household items and toys for materials.

Dangling Magnet
Source Institutions
In this activity about magnetism (page 13 of the pdf), learners will experiment with magnets to explore how water and other liquids affect the strength of magnetic fields.

Source Institutions
In this movement and measurement activity, learners jump as far as they can three times, and compare their longest jump to the longest jump of their friends, classmates and/or family members.

All Things Being Equal
Source Institutions
In this game, learners strategize to win the most cards by building number equations. Learners practice operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) to construct their equations.

Burst a Bubble
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will create their own bubble solution. Learners will explore chemistry, geometry and trial and error through this activity.
