This activity offers learners and their families several ways to raise their awareness together about home water.

Put on a pair of gloves and be the conductor of your invisible orchestra!

In this activity, learners use simple, everyday materials to experiment with balls and ramps.

In this activity, learners will explore light with reflective surfaces. Learners will make predictions and share their observations as they experiment with directing a beam of light.

In this activity, learners use found natural materials to create a water haven for bees and other insects.

In this activity, learners make their own solar oven to bake s'mores and learn about how solar energy is absorbed on Earth.

Some animals can swallow food whole, but humans have to chew. In this activity, learners will investigate what saliva does chemically to food before we even swallow.

This fun hands-on astronomy activity uses a variety of simple props to help learners understand why they see what they see in a telescope.

This hands-on activity demonstrates how a material can act differently when it's nanometer-sized.

In this activity (pages 8-9), learners investigate the properties of smart materials, which are materials that respond to things that happen around them.

In this activity, learners get hands-on with geometry by making a polyhedron kitty sculpture.

This is a highly visual demonstration that illustrates both the effects of density and chemical reactions.

In this activity, learners will investigate the part of soil. Explore how clay, silt, and sand make up the dirt in your background. Activity includes step-by-step instructions and extension ideas.

In this activity, learners explore the chemical reaction between water and effervescent antacid tablets. This hands-on activity models how a material can act differently when it's nanometer-sized.

In this activity, learners use clear nail polish to create a beautiful iridescent pattern on black paper. Learners discover that a thin film creates iridescent, rainbow colors.

In this physics demonstration, learners will be surprised when a lemon slice appears to magically levitate within a pint glass.

In this "game," learners explore and relate the evolution of stars to a Navajo creation story. The story is written on a series of cards, which are laid on a table as the story is told.
