Learners investigate signs of a chemical reaction when they mix vinegar and baking soda. In addition to a gas being produced, learners also notice the temperature decreases.

In this activity, learners use simple materials to construct a balloon-powered pinwheel. The pinwheel is a great way to investigate Newton's Third Law of Motion.

In this experiment, learners try different liquids to see which ones clean pennies best. Liquids to try include water, lemon juice, cola, vinegar, and dishwashing detergent.

In this activity, learners will experiment with catalysts to create an at-home version of elephant toothpaste.

In two separate bags, learners mix water with Epsom salts and detergent.

In this introductory activity and demonstration, learners are introduced to the concept that different substances react chemically in characteristic ways.

In this physics activity (page nine of the pdf), learners use balloons to explore how a rocket works. It is suggested they also work to see how they can alter the velocity of the rocket.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF) features a recipe to create the stretchy polymer Flubber from Borax detergent, white glue, and water.

In this activity, learners separate the protein from milk and and use it to make their own glue.
