In this activity, learners develop an understanding of cylinders and volume as they compare two sizes of popcorn buckets.
The Jelly Bean Challenge
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore how their sense of smell affects their taste buds. Learners taste different flavored jelly beans while holding their nose.

Colors Collide or Combine
Source Institutions
Learners place multiple M&M's in a plate of water to watch what happens as the candies dissolve.

Salt 'n Lighter
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners discover that as the salinity of water increases, the density increases as well. Learners prove this by attempting to float fresh eggs in saltwater and freshwater.

Learners place an M&M candy in water and observe what happens. The sugar-and-color coating dissolves and spreads out in a circular pattern around the M&M.

One In The Hand
Source Institutions
In this physics demonstration, learners are challenged to break a raw egg just by squeezing it. Learners will be shocked by their inability to complete the deceivingly simple challenge.

Rate of Solution Demonstration
Source Institutions
In this chemistry demonstration, learners investigate the factors that increase the rate of dissolution for a solid.
Are you a Supertaster?
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners examine their tongue and taste buds.
Growing Rock Candy
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make their own rock candy. Crystals will grow from a piece of string hanging in a cup of sugar water. The edible crystals may take up to a week to form.
