This display shows the dangers of acid rain on buildings and other structures as two concrete bunny rabbits are disintegrated by sulfuric acid. Learners scrape chalk onto the concrete bunnies.

This game depicts a woman going through her day, faced with various loud sounds.

In this experiment, learners discover how an airfoil creates lift. Learners use simple materials to build an airfoil and test it at different angles to investigate Bernoulli's principle.

In this chemistry activity, learners transform two ingredients (4% polyvinyl alcohol solution and 4% borax solution) into gooey slime.

In this activity, young learners will describe objects by their properties and sort by color, weight and texture. This activity uses household items and toys for materials.

In this meteorology activity, learners construct simple devices to measure the direction and speed of wind.

In this activity, learners explore how spring scales work and how they are used for non-exact weight measurement.

In this activity, learners simulate the behavior of the atmosphere.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers work to solve the challenges of a society, such as delivering safe drinking water.

In this activity, you'll use a paper cup, a piece of cloth, and some string to make a musical instrument called a cuica (pronounced KWEE-kah).

In this activity, learners explore how engineers work in a team to solve problems.

In this activity, learners explore how wind tunnels provide feedback to engineers about the performance and durability of products such as planes, cars, and buildings.

In this activity, learners practice the steps involved in a scientific investigation while learning why ice formations on land (not those on water) will cause a rise in sea level upon melting.

Learners measure a bottle full of air, and then use a vacuum pump to remove the air. When they re-weigh the bottle, learners find the mass is about 0.8g less.

In this activity related to microbes, learners create scale models of microorganisms and compare relative sizes of common bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa using metric measures: meters, centimete

In this activity, learners explore the engineering behind life vests or personal flotation devices and the challenges met by these devices.

In this activity, learners build styrofoam boats powered by twisted rubber bands.

In this activity, learners transform everyday milk into small plastic figurines and jewelry. Use this activity to introduce learners to monomers and polymers.

This game plays a dozen different sounds, altered to simulate what they would sound like if you had hearing loss.

In this outdoor, winter activity, learners find living green plants under the snow and determine the light and temperature conditions around the plants.
