In this colorful activity (page 6 of the PDF), learners will make a multicolor density column by using different concentrations of sugar solutions.

In this activity, learners will build a simple electromagnet. They will test variables that would make the electromagnet stronger.

In this physics activity, learners attempt to lift a jar full of rice using only a spoon.

In this physics activity (page 8 of the PDF), learners will explore the property of density.

In this Energy and Environment activity (page 9 of the PDF), learners calculate the mass of a piece of gum, compare it to the mass of the gum's packaging, and then create a bar graph of the results.

In this activity, learners will make homemade jello that glows under a blacklight. They will learn about quinine, an ingredient in tonic water that is fluorescent.

In this activity, learners will create beautiful greeting cards by marbling with shaving cream and food dye. They will explore the chemistry behind the art of marbling.

In this exciting and tasty chemistry activity which requires adult supervision, learners explore how chemistry affects a simple everyday activity like cooking.

In this physics activity, learners build their own rockets out of film canisters and construction paper.

In this physics activity (page 4 of the PDF), learners will explore how similar magnetic poles repel one another. They will rely on linear induction to race magnets around a simple course.

In this activity, learners construct a rocket powered by the pressure generated from an effervescing antacid tablet reacting with water, and build a launch pad for their rocket.

In this activity, learners learn about friction by making their own miniature hovercraft.

In this activity about magnetism (page 15 of the PDF), learners will explore how opposite and similar magnetic poles affect a swinging (pendulum) magnet.

In this activity about transfer of energy, learners get to build their own catapult using nothing more than a plastic spoon and some tape.

In this activity, learners will explore the chemistry of cooking. They will learn about--and observe--the Maillard Reaction as they make their own browned butter.

In this amazing activity about light and reflection, learners will use a pie plate and reflective strips from a mylar balloon to try to morph their face into a friend's.

In this activity, learners will create glitter bottles with adult supervision. These are a fun way for little ones to practice observing and making comparisons.

In this activity, learners will make fish cutouts that propel through the water with the help of surface tension.

Everybody loves bubbles, and this is the best bubble recipe ever!

In this activity, learners will use chemistry to create a night sky watercolor painting. They will experiment to learn the effects of mixing crayon, salt, and lemon juice with water color paints.
