In this engineering activity, young learners investigate multi-level buildings.

Build a fruit fly trap out of a 2-liter plastic bottle and some rotten fruit! Fruit flies are easy to catch in warm weather. Once you catch some, you will be able to see their life cycle up-close.

Choose a recipe to double (or triple, quadruple, or halve). Show everyone the recipe and engage them in figuring out: How much will we need to increase the recipe to feed everyone?

In this activity, learners will explore saturated solutions and discover how crystals form.

In this activity, learners observe, explore and investigate vibrating instruments in everyday places and create music in unique ways.
