Learners investigate an iron-fortified cereal by stirring it with a strong magnet. They discover that metallic iron is present in some cereals.

In two separate bags, learners mix water with Epsom salts and detergent.

In this activity, learners of all ages can become food scientists by experimenting with flour and water to make basic pasta.

In this chemistry activity (page 1 of the PDF), learners will observe a physical change.

In this activity, learners make film canister rocket ships. A fin pattern is glued onto the outside of the canister, and fuel (water and half an antacid tablet) is mixed inside the canister.

In this challenge, learners figure out how to make a juice stain disappear.

Our bodies defend themselves in many different ways to prevent us from getting sick.

Learners are challenged to create solutions that conduct electricity and make a buzzer buzz (or an LED light up).

In this simple activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners make a crystal garden using salt, water, and a brick.

In this chemistry activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners corrode a penny in a cup with vinegar, salt water, and a source of iron (nails, paper clips, or twist ties).

In this crafty chemistry activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners make their own paper from used paper they may have otherwise thrown away.

Learners experiment with a piece of Silly Putty® by stretching, bouncing, and snapping it. They then create flubber, a similar substance, by mixing diluted glue and a solution of sodium borate.

In this activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners explore surface tension by adding pennies to cups which are "full" of plain water or soapy water.

In this activity, learners will create their own bubble solution. Learners will explore chemistry, geometry and trial and error through this activity.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF) features a recipe to create the stretchy polymer Flubber from Borax detergent, white glue, and water.

In this activity, learners combine two substances (plaster of Paris and water) to make a cast of an object's imprint in clay.
