Make a kindergarten "discovery table" that reinforces both science and writing skills. Here's how:

Children use their design thinking skills and powers of observation to create and construct a bird nest.

Check out this silly game that will put your kid's animal habitat knowledge (and acting skills) to the test.

This is a fun and inexpensive project and it's a great way for your child to build basic geometry skills, like shape recognition and pattern/angle familiarity.

In this simple and social activity, children use size comparison skills to find objects in nature that are bigger, smaller, longer, and shorter.

Use this fun activity to make an optical illusion picture that helps your kindergartener explore the sense of sight, and sharpen his observation skills!

Invite your kindergarten marine biologist to practice in scientific identification and categorization while creating a lovely treasure box.

First graders are learning to think like scientists. What better place to start, then by raising tadpoles? This hands-on activity explores science in action!

Take a nature walk in your backyard or local park to find one object for every letter of the alphabet. Then put them together in this handy nature book.

Try this fun garden graphing project with your kindergartener this summer to give him a leg up in math and science while spending some valuable time outdoors!

Take a trip to the pet store and then make a scrapbook to help your kindergartener learn the difference between living and non living things!

Satisfy your kindergartener's fascination of different sounds with this easy science project, where they'll use their ears instead of their eyes to identify sounds!

When critters protect themselves by taking on the patterns of nature, it's called "camouflage." Play this camouflage matching game with your child!

Here's a great early reading and science activity for curious children. Learn how to plant your child's name in seeds for a growing writing activity!

Help your kindergartener identify and sort eight different kinds of common seeds on this "seed wheel" plate you can use all growing season.

Help your kindergarten scientist predict and observe as she explores the science of smell...and have a great time doing it, too.

Teach your child about healthy foods and how to make a meal that is good for them with this fun activity that you both can do together.

Help your kindergartener expand social studies and science work while creating this lovely bag clip for the holidays.

Combine science with reading and art to help your first grader create an attractive holiday gift for a beloved friend or relative.

Help your first grader design and create his very own bird feeder out of an empty milk carton.

In this design thinking activity, your child will choose an animal to research, learn about the animal’s habitat, and then replicate the animal's habitat using household items.

You and your child can create this beautiful butterfly mobile for hanging anywhere in the home (and learn about this magical creature while you're at it).

Reuse and recycle cardboard tubes to make spooky spiders, kooky caterpillars, wacky worms, and more.

Children are imaginative story-builders. Create a shoebox habitat with your child to put those budding creative instincts to good use.

Here's a math, science, and social studies activity: help your kindergartener become a "coin archaeologist" by examining how different coins look and feel.

Your kindergartener will make prints of his favorite fruits and vegetables and learn how to organize and assemble his very own book.

What better way to nurture your child's imagination than by making a fairy house out of materials found in nature!

Give your local birds a treat — and your young birdwatcher some fun — with this simple DIY bird feeder.

Help your child build her very own science laboratory at home for experiments and science projects. This is a quick, easy, and fun educational tool!
