This science fair project idea explores how length affects the weight a bridge can hold.

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

In this science fair project, young children will become aware of and have the opportunity to experience the four basic tastes: sweet, sour, salty, and bitter.

This play-activity causes young children to focus on and become more aware of their sense of hearing and the power of their ears.

Wiggly worms are known for staying buried in the soil, but how does that affect plants? Are earthworms and plant growth related?

This is a quick, easy science fair project that conveys the idea of density to preschool and early elementary children.

In this project children discover, identify, and sort seeds from a variety of fruits and vegetables

This science experiment tests why guacamole goes brown and if leaving the pit in will stop guacamole from turning brown.

Science fair project idea that examines different physical characteristics of a chosen animal. Make educated guesses about evolution based on animal's form.

Dinosaurs were huge creatures that left behind huge footprints that lasted for millions of years. In this science fair project, kids learn how dinosaur tracks were left behind!

Why does purple cheese look nasty? Because color plays a big part in how we perceive the taste of different foods. Are birds just like us in this respect?

This science fair project idea determines if the size of the parachute will change the rate at which an object falls.

What is surface tension? Kids will discover how water-skating insects use surface tension to keep from sinking by making a model water walker.
