Explore how dielectric heating comes into play when microwaving various liquids in this science project. This test will help you understand how microwaves work!

Find out which type of sponge holds the most water.

In this sound experiment children listen for differences as they tap on a bag of air, a bag of water, and a wooden block held up to their ears.

Experiment with buoyancy to learn how a submarine rises and sinks in this classic science experiment.

Demonstrate how static electricity can cause an object to move. It also examines just how an object affected by static electricity will move.

In this air pressure science experiment with a balloon and a jar, children will use heat to create a partial vacuum and suck a balloon into a jar.

This project compares the strength of one, two, and three-ply toilet paper.

This science fair project idea explores if the length of the string that an object is suspended on has an effect on how fast or slow it swings.

This science fair project idea explores how much force is needed to move a lever at different distances from the fulcrum.

This science fair project idea investigates if webbed feet help a duck (and others) swim.

This science fair project idea investigates if heat from direct sunlight is hotter than heat from reflected sunlight.

Science fair project in which you will attempt to throw a ball the greatest horizontal distance possible by using different angles.

How does a kazoo, the strings of a guitar, or the speaker of a radio make sound? The purpose of this science fair project is to show how vibration makes sound.

This classic children's game demonstrates how sound travels through air vs. through a solid.

In this CD hovercraft science project, students will construct their own DIY hovercraft.

This science fair project focuses on the use of a conductivity device that will determine if a substance dissolved in water can or cannot conduct electricity.
