In this activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners make a plastic protein polymer from milk. Adding vinegar to milk causes the protein casein to solidify or curdle.

In this activity, learners explore how hot and cold water move. Learners observe that temperature and density affect how liquids rise and fall.

In this activity, learners will construct a measuring device (snake "string") to improve their observation skills.

In this craft activity, learners will explore the structure and purpose of antelope horns by constructing their own headband using toilet paper rolls and yarn.

In this hands-on activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners experiment with lemon juice and paper to create a message that can only be revealed using chemistry.

In this activity, learners explore sound by constructing an instrument using some metal pipes, rubber bands, and a baseboard.

Learners design, build, and test models of "dragon boats" made from up to three milk cartons.

In this activity, learners play a game from India similar to Tic-Tac-Toe. Players take turns placing coins on the game board and sliding the coins along the spaces.

In this activity, learners will discover how our universe is continuously expanding.

In this activity, learners explore patterns and sequences as they observe fictional plant growth.

In this math activity, learners pretend there is a special store that lets you pay for toys by their height in pennies.

In this engineering activity, challenge learners to design a car using only 3 straws, 4 Lifesavers™, 1 piece of paper, 2 paper clips, tape, and scissors.

In this activity (on page 2), one person "programs" the other like a robot to move through a space, trying to get them to avoid obstacles and reach a goal.

In this math activity, learners pretend there is a special store that lets you pay for toys by their weight in pennies.

In this quick and easy activity and/or demonstration, learners use two empty soda cans to illustrate Bernoulli's principle.

This is a guide for facilitating interaction at a touch tank with marine animals. The instructions are for setting up a display in an informal science center, but could work anywhere.

Create an instrument that you don't play--you just listen to it through tubes of various lengths.

In this activity, learners will build a bee hotel for pollinators. Learners will explore building and ecology through this activity.

Learners assemble a figure from a nylon stocking or sock stuffed with soil and seeds. The ends of the nylons inside the jar absorb water, which feeds the grass seeds.

With a magnet, iron fillings, and a bottle, you can create a cool demonstration about magnetic lines of force: the fillings will arrange themselves within the magnet's magnetic field.
