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 about electricity, learners explore what happens when you blow a fuse.

In this activity, learners create night lights using a plastic cup, programmable PICO Cricket, tri-color LED, and sensor.

In this activity, learners create painting machines that can paint moving forwards and backwards.

In this activity, learners take apart a used zinc-carbon dry cell battery.

In this activity, learners explore conservation of energy by experimenting with a solar cell light device.

Learners build a simple electromagnet, then use this electromagnet to transform a yogurt container into a working speaker. They can connect their speaker to a radio and listen as it transmits sound.

In this activity, learners create a tiny electric, motorized dancer. Learners use the interactions of magnetism and electric current to make a wire spin, while displaying the Lorentz Force in action.

In this activity, learners make optical fibers out of strips of gelatin.

In this activity, learners string a line across the room and build cable cars that can move from on end to the other.

Learners create an electrical-circuit maze out of wire, then try to pass a paperclip through the maze without touching the wire.

In this activity, learners explore electricity and conductivity to find that many things conduct electricity including copper, pencil lead, fruit, play-doh, and even people!
