Exploring Materials: Nano Gold
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners discover that nanoparticles of gold can appear red, orange or even blue. They learn that a material can act differently when it’s nanometer-sized.

Screen Time
Source Institutions
This game asks you a series of questions about how much time you spend in front of a screen, not being active.

It's a Gas!
Source Institutions
In this simple activity, learners see the production of a gas, which visibly fills up a balloon placed over the neck of a bottle.

Hovercraft
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make plates levitate! Learners build "hovercrafts" using simple materials to explore friction and motion.
Breakfast Sweets
Source Institutions
In this math activity, learners guess which cereals contain the most sugar. Learners use the nutrition labels on the cereal boxes to find the cereal with the least amount of sugar.

Release the Grease!
Source Institutions
In this simple activity (on page 7 of the PDF), learners use water and liquid dish detergent to see which one removes lipstick better from an index card.

Exploring Size: Tiny Ruler
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners investigate just how small a billionth of a meter is by attempting to cut a paper ruler down to a nanometer-sized sliver.

Exploring Materials: Hydrogel
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners discover how a super-absorbing material can be used to move a straw.

Thirsty Candle
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will explore the dynamics of air pressure by using a candle, a cup, and a dish of water.

Chemistry is Colorful
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore materials through paper chromatography.

Sound Mixer: A Multi-track Mixer of Animal Sounds
Source Institutions
This is a virtual representation of a sound mixer containing pre-looped sounds of animal, insect, and environmental noises.

Exploring Size: Measure Yourself
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners mark their height on a height chart and discover how tall they are in nanometers.

Color Vision
Source Institutions
In this online activity, learners make a whole rainbow by mixing red, green, and blue light. They can change the wavelength of a monochromatic beam or they can filter white light.

Exploring Products: Nano Fabrics
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore how the application of nano-sized "whiskers" can protect clothing from stains.

Número misterioso
Source Institutions
Combine la lógica y los números en este juego para todas las edades.
Alien Encounter
Source Institutions
Use multiplication to help the aliens find out how much fuel they need to get their spacecrafts home.

What am I?
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners examine nanoscale structures of common things.

Place Matters: How Sound Changes Due to Environment
Source Institutions
This is an online simulation of how sound changes due to environment. How does place--like a cave, a pier, or a forest--affect certain sounds?

Changing Colors
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will explore how different colors of lights interact with objects around them. Will a blue object stay blue with a red filter?

Exploring Size: Ball Sorter
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use sieves with different-sized holes to sort balls by size.
