In this activity, learners explore how nanosized structures can create brilliant color.

This is a demonstration about how nature inspires nanotechnology. It is easily adapted into a hands-on activity for an individual or groups.

In this activity, learners assemble large cubes to make nano-related images. Learners discover how different objects are related to nanoscience and nanotechnology.

In this activity, learners investigate how some butterfly wings get their color.

In this activity/demo, learners examine a synthetic gecko tape with micron sized hairs that mimics the behavior of the gecko foot.

In this game, learners try to find nano-related objects on a game board. Learners investigate the different ways nano is in the world around us.

In this activity, learners explore how the application of nano-sized particles or coatings can change a bigger material’s properties.

In this activity, learners participate in several full-body interactive games to model the process of self-assembly in nature and nanotechnology.

In this game, learners explore the different sizes of things in the world. In this Twister-like game, learners must place a hand or foot on a circle of the right scale - macro, micro, or nano.

"Nature of Dye" allows participants to create their own dyes and art while exploring how chemicals interact and how these interactions can have real-world applications.
