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

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

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

Put your second grade scientist to work this Fourth of July with our colorful "liquid fireworks" project!
