Source Institutions
In this activity, the learner will experiment with the physics of sound production while making a sound making toy. The activity includes a video with step by step instructions.

Discovery Time: Birds
Source Institutions
In this activity, young learners, (2 years and up) explore bird behavior and adaptations by providing a homemade bird feeder and observing birds.

Butterfly Life Cycle
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will explore the insect life cycle by making a model.

Butterflies and Moths: Camouflage
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make a camouflaged butterfly to hide outside for others to find.

Make Pooter
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will explore engineering to construct an insect collecting tool (insect aspirator). The pooter uses suction to safely collect smaller insects that nets miss or may injure.
