Grades 1-3

Participants construct a playground out of simple machines.

Students will design an illusion in order to understand how motion is perceived.

Students take their fingerprints and identify the patterns.

This is a great hands-on activity for large-scale community events or even in class visits. Students build spider webs out of toothpicks, thin, flexible wires, and beads. This can act as a supplement to other bug-related activities or even to discussing elements of mathematics in nature.

This activity discusses Optics/Perception and teaches about the persistence of vision.

This activity will introduce younger audiences to what science is.

This activity will teach us about magnets and how they can overcome gravity by creating a magnetic kite!

Measuring distances today is done using fixed units (cm, m, ft, inches), but this was not always the case! This activity explores how a person's foot can be used as a measuring tool, and the benefits of standardizing units.

To demonstrate how two eyes interact with each other, and how strange things can happen when we alter the conditions in which we see the world.

This is a fun, interactive activity to help students understand the process of cross-pollination!

Students will explore surface tension and how water molecules stick together to form a drop of water by dropping water onto a penny or any other small coin.

In this activity, participants will explore the functioning of their circulatory system and how different activity levels impact it!

Students learn about daily and seasonal changes through group discussion, songs, drawing and interactive demonstrations.

Try out some additional activities that explore solids, liquids and gases!

During this activity, the participants complete four different tasks to learn about five forces - gravity, friction, magnetism, static electricity and buoyancy.
