Here's a fun activity to help build thinking skills in young first grade scientists, and to encourage them to have a blast exploring the mass and volume.

How many steps long is the hallway? Kids put their graph-making skills to work as they make a step map of their own house.

Help your child learn science and math skills like sorting, sequencing, and ordering while taking a nature walk and collecting and collaging leaves.

A food groups plate shows your child what category her foods belong in. Make a food groups plate with your child before dinnertime.

This first grade science activity is great for winter! Your child will grow and observe her own amaryllis bulb, keeping a journal of her scientific findings.

Introduce your child to science with something they see everyday--their shadow!
