In this activity learners will be creating art using a traditional Japanese art style.

In this activity, learners work in pairs to measure each other's ankles with lengths of string.

In this activity (on page 2) about fingerprint analysis, learners use graphite from a pencil and scotch tape to capture their fingerprints.

In this chemistry activity, learners make a slimy non-Newtonian fluid called "Gluep." Use this activity to introduce learners to polymers and viscosity.

In this activity, learners act as the Earth and observe how different angles between the Sun, Earth, and Moon affect the phases of the moon we see each month.

In this activity, learners work together to create a life-sized drawing of the human nervous system.

In this activity (p.3-4 of PDF), learners learn about disease transmission and antibiotic resistance.

In this game, learners each represent a different organism in an environment. They build a web during the activity, and discover how all the players in an ecosystem depend on each other.

In this activity (on pages 16-21), learners get a sense of geological time by understanding how big a million is.

Visitors mix urea with water in one flask and mix calcium chloride with water in another flask. They observe that the urea flask gets cold and the calcium chloride flask gets hot.

In this activity, learners build a scale model of the solar system using a roll of toilet paper.

Data in computers is stored and transmitted as a series of zeros and ones. Learners explore how to represent numbers using just these two symbols, through a binary system of cards.

This activity helps learners learn about math through a real-world scenario. Three friends are baking cookies for their school’s bake sale.

In this activity, children and adults work together to explore their relationship with technology and examine ways to make sustainable media consumption choices.

In this activity, learners make water rockets to explore Newton's Third Law of Motion. Learners make the rockets out of plastic bottles and use a bicycle pump to pump them with air.

In this activity (on pages 12-15), learners make a crater model and test the effects of weather (rain) on its surface.

In this activity related to computer programming, learners give directions to a "robot" (either an adult or another learner) and find out which instructions the robot is able to follow, and how their

Visitors observe a bottle with a balloon attached around the mouth. The bottle contains a solution of yeast, sugar, and water.

In this activity (on page 4), learners create a submarine using a plastic sandwich bag. This is a fun way to learn about buoyancy and how captured gas can cause objects to float.

In this activity related to rotational inertia (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Microgravity), learners will use a bit of scientific experimenting to test if open-faced peanut butter sandwi
