Children learn the six parts of a plant...but do they really understand? Try this plant-themed meal plan to bring school science into the home.

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.

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

The concept of metamorphosis is fascinating to children of all ages. Help your child's creativity take flight as she makes her very own butterfly life cycle.

In this science and engineering activity, children will explore types of tunnels and their purposes and then design and build a tunnel of their own.

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 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.

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!

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.

Does your child love learning about dinosaurs? Does he like digging around in search of hidden treasures? In this fun activity he'll do both!

What is topography? Kids find out by learning to make and read a topographic map in this awesome science fair project idea.

First graders are learning basic addition and subtraction math facts. Practice in the sandbox with this fun outdoor math activity!

Want to boost math and science learning? Take a bug expedition and give your first grader practice observing and charting what they see.

Your third grader will delight in learning about sound waves as he observes the different sounds created by tapping on glasses with varying amounts of water.

In this science fair experiment, children demonstrate the relationship between the amount of stuff and the amount of pressure in a closed system.

What's the best way to make DIY compost? Kids will learn about aerobic and anaerobic decomposition while learning to appreciate the value of composting.

Children have a naturally inquisitive mind. Foster their curiosity with a walk through an autumn field or park to answer age-old “why” questions. As you walk with your child, you can encourage them to ask questions.

Learning about how plants grow is a building block in the early grades science curriculum. Put a fun twist on this life science concept with these cup monster friends!

Explore aromas with your child and help boost her brain power with some fun and interactive science activities.

Help your child create a garden journal sketchbook as she observes and records the natural world through the changing seasons.

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

This activity challenges students to use computational thinking as they create a sequence of commands that will make a robot navigate around several obstacles.

This activity challenges students to use computational thinking as they create a sequence of commands that will make a robot move in a pattern related to the sound and rhythm of music.

Checkerboard play challenges students to use spatial reasoning and computational thinking.

Blend art and science in this hands-on activity that shows your kindergartener how primary colors combine to make secondary colors.

What's a liquid? What's a solid? What better way to experiment than by turning a childhood favorite, ice cream, into a homemade science lesson!

Get your child math and science savvy with this fun outdoor classification game. Using chalk, your child will classify what she sees in the natural world.

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!

Are your taste buds up for the challenge? Put tongues to the test with this science fair project that examines who enjoys sour flavors more, adults or kids?

Did you ever think you could make colors disappear right before your eyes? This science experiment is just like a magic trick: now you see it, now you don't!
