In this activity, learners will use clear nail polish and the power of chemistry to create paper with a rainbow sheen.

In this easy chemistry activity, learners submerge pennies in different liquids (water, lemon juice, vinegar, liquid hand soap, salt water, and baking soda mixed with water) to observe which best clea

In this activity on page 7 of the PDF, learners follow a recipe to make a dough similar to the clay artists use to make sculptures.

In this experiment, learners separate different types of molecules in marker inks (using a technique called "thin layer chromatography").

In this classic reaction, learners baking soda and vinegar in a soda bottle to produce carbon dioxide (CO2) gas. This gas inflates a balloon.

In this activity, learners will experiment with density and chemical reactions to create a flurry activity.

Using yeast, sugar, and water, learners create a chemical reaction which produces carbon dioxide (CO2) gas inside a 2-liter bottle. They use this gas to inflate a balloon.

Learners investigate one factor affecting reaction rates: temperature. In a darkened room, two identical lightsticks are placed in water -- one in hot water and one in cold water.

In this activity, learners will explore acid-base reactions and create their own bubbly results.

Learners make their own acid-base indicator from red cabbage. They use this indicator to test substances around the house.

In this activity, learners will experiment with catalysts to create an at-home version of elephant toothpaste.

Learners investigate an iron-fortified cereal by stirring it with a strong magnet. They discover that metallic iron is present in some cereals.

In this activity, young learners will experiment with a basic chemical reaction and observe what happens when gas gets trapped! Activity includes step-by-step instructions, safety notes and more.
