In this activity, learners will play a coin toss game where the highest total wins. Combine coin recognition, addition, and probability with a game learners can play on their own.

In this activity, learners experiment with gear motion to understand how gears work to change the amount of force, speed, or direction of motion in machines.

Are balloons porous or non-porous? In this activity, learners watch an entertaining Mr. O video and conduct a simple experiment to find out.

In this activity, learners will engineer three different parachutes to test how well each one works.

This magic trick is based on how computers detect and correct data errors.

Get a roll of pennies, throw them on the ground, then remove those that only show tails, and repeat with the ones left over.
