Showing Results for solid shapes

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

This classic children's game-connecting two cups with a string-demonstrates sound's ability to travel through air vs through a solid.

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.

In this project combining nature, art, math, and science, children make rubbings of leaves then observe shapes and structures and sort the leaf images.

Science fair project that develops latent fingerprints on a non-porous objects by converting superglue from a solid state to a gaseous state.

In this science fair project, kids observe the expansion of liquids when frozen and determine if some liquids expand more than others in the freezing process.

Is it a square or a circle? See if you can trick your friends with this zany science project!

This project demonstrates the correspondence between the volume of water displaced by a submerged object and the volume of the object displacing it.

Is it possible to trick the forces of nature that make your bubbles round to create a square bubble?

In this free science fair project idea, we learn about surface tension and how it can support mass—in this case, a floating paper clip.
