In this physics activity (page 6 of the PDF), learners will try to keep a marble in a bottomless cup without touching the marble inside.

In this activity, learners build a LEGO® structure while wearing mittens. This activity shows learners how difficult it is to build small things when your tools are too big.

In this activity, learners build a musical drum using a cardboard tube, plastic wrap, and beads.

In this activity, learners build cars using syringes and water-powered hydraulics. Learners construct the car frame out of cardboard and set up a hydraulic system to raise and lower the car.

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

In this activity, learners build unique yo-yos, which spin round and round without moving up and down.

In this activity, learners concoct some stretchy green goo called Gak. This activity will introduce learners to polymers, chemical reactions, and how scientists invent new materials.

In this activity, learners build a cuica or chirping bird using straw, string, and a bottle cap. Use this activity to explore the interplay of motion and sound.

In this activity, learners are challenged to design a wind-powered car using only a handful of household materials.

In this activity, learners explore the unseen force of friction and how surfaces can slow moving objects at different rates.

In this physics activity, challenge learners to make a race-car out of a coffee can and rubber band. Demonstrate motion, forces, kinetic and potential energy and friction.

Learners make slime from white school glue and Borax detergent. The long chain molecules of the white glue become cross-linked by the Borax into a big network.

Learners design and build a roller coaster using simple materials. Learners experiment with potential and kinetic energy to get a marble to follow a track into a cup.

In this activity, learners explore sound by constructing a simple piano out of wood and craft sticks.
