Bake Ice Cream in Your Oven
Source Institutions
In this a hands-on activity, learners explore how to put ice cream in an oven without it melting. Ideas in this activity include insulation and cooking.

It's the "Rain," Man
Source Institutions
In this weather forecasting activity, learners use common materials to construct a rain gauge and measure daily, monthly, and yearly rainfall.

Chemistry is Colorful
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore materials through paper chromatography.

Stepping Out: Hop, Skip, Jump
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore and experiment how we can use our bodies everyday to get from one place to another.

Where Does the Wind Blow?
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners investigate wind by comparing the force of wind in different locations. Learners build wind-o-meters out of wooden sticks and strips of paper.

That Sinking Feeling
Source Institutions
In this quick activity, learners observe how salinity and temperature affect the density of water, to better understand the Great Ocean Conveyor.

Tree Investigations
Source Institutions
In this activities, learners head outside and investigate trees through bark rubbings. Learners will need paper, a pencil, and some unwrapped crayons to create them.

Potato Straw
Source Institutions
In this physics demonstration, learners are challenged to insert a straw the furthest into a potato.

Nature of Density
Source Institutions
In this activity learners will explore the concepts of density and matter in their quest to answer one simple question-will it sink or will it float?

Design a Park
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners are invited to imagine the park of their dreams!

Rollin’ Rollin' Rollin'
Source Institutions
In this physics activity (page 12 of the PDF), learners explore potential and kinetic energy by rolling different sized marbles down an inclined plane.

Daffy Density
Source Institutions
In this chemistry activity, learners explore density by using four solids and 6 liquids to create colorful, layered rows.

Rain Machine (Solar Still)
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners work in groups to build simple solar stills filled with salt water. After the stills are complete, learners observe what happens when they place the stills in the sun.
Caterpillar Measure
Source Institutions
In this activity, young learners use different-sized paper 'caterpillars' and various household items to predict and measure their height.

Work Up An Appetite
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners participate in fun movement activities while playing on a giant game board. Use this activity to get learners involved in physical activity.

Mystery Sand
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners play with surprising sand that doesn’t get wet! Learners explore how water behaves differently when it comes in contact with "magic sand" and regular sand.

Kool Colors
Source Institutions
Learn about dyes and mordants (fixatives) when you tie-dye fabric with Kool-Aid™ and vinegar. The colored molecules in Kool-Aid™ form a chemical bond between the fiber and dye molecules.

Balancing Sculptures
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will use a variety of household and/or natural objects to design a sculpture that balances from a single point.

Inner Strength
Source Institutions
In this activity about endoskeletons (page 8 of PDF), learners observe, compare and contrast different kinds of chicken bones, and relate their chicken bone observations to human bones.

Sound Mixer: A Multi-track Mixer of Animal Sounds
Source Institutions
This is a virtual representation of a sound mixer containing pre-looped sounds of animal, insect, and environmental noises.
