In this activity, learners can play two card games related to endangered species, specifically North American amphibians.

In this activity, learners will explore surface tension, what it is, and how we can change it.

In this demonstration, learners observe the effects of density and pressure by attempting to make "balloon kebabs." Learners will try to insert a wooden skewer all the way through an inflated balloon

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?

In this fun and interactive online exhibit, the straight lines of a tile wall appear to curve. The learner moves the rows of tiles and changes the color of the grout to achieve the intriguing effect.

In this simple game, learners start to understand how to sort and categorize objects by trying to guess the connection between three items that someone else has chosen.

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?

In this experiment, learners use a blow dryer and water bottle to observe and record changes in air pressure caused by changes in temperature.

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.

Build a car that runs on air. Using household materials, experiment with the power of air to create thrust powerful enough to move a homemade car.

In this activity, learners use water, oil, and food coloring to observe a chemical reaction that creates a shower of colors inside of a glass.

In this activity, learners use a laser pointer, empty soda bottle, rubber plug and water to demonstrate total internal reflection.

In this activity, learners explore how distance can affect the way we perceive the size of an object.

In this chemistry activity, learners use common chemicals and metals to examine reactions that produce gaseous substances.

This game depicts a woman going through her day, faced with various loud sounds.

Learners measure a bottle full of air, and then use a vacuum pump to remove the air. When they re-weigh the bottle, learners find the mass is about 0.8g less.

This game plays a dozen different sounds, altered to simulate what they would sound like if you had hearing loss.

In this math activity, learners practice comparing fractions.

In this activity, learners will experiment with salt and ice in order to turn a bag of ingredients into ice cream.

This activity is an investigation of static electricity. What happens when you get "static cling?" Basically, you pile up electrons on one thing, which attracts the protons in something else.
