In this activity, learners get a closer look at the shape of a drop of water and a drop of oil. Learners first drip water onto wax paper and examine the shape of separate drops from a side view.

Learners see that a carrot slice sinks in fresh water and floats in saltwater.

In this activity, learners working in pairs saturate a cotton ball using water drops from an eyedropper to demonstrate the high water capacity of clouds.

Learners place multiple M&M's in a plate of water to watch what happens as the candies dissolve.

In this physics activity, learners will explore buoyancy.

Learners act as engineers and design mini submarines that move in the water like real submarines.

In this quick activity about the properties of water (page 1 of PDF under SciGirls Activity: Malformed Frogs), learners will use an eyedropper to slowly place one drop of water at a time onto a penny,

This Exploratorium activity can be used in many contexts because geysers are great opportunities for learning about heat and temperature changes as well as geological/space science phenomena.

In this activity, learners observe the hydrologic cycle in action as water evaporates and condenses to form rain right before their eyes.
