This cool and easy elementary school science fair project idea provides the basic information on the use of our senses to experience the world about us.

Use popcorn in this tasty experiment to explore the five senses at home with your kindergartener!

Use chemical analysis to identify a variety of mystery powders that look the same but actually have very different properties.

Set up a fun guessing game for your curious kindergartener, one that will test her ability to use all five of her senses.

In this kindergarten activity your child will create a map of your house and use a magnet to move pictures of your family through the house!

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

Help your kindergarten or first grade child use his creativity to make a beautiful magnetic patterned structure while discovering the wonders of magnets.

Here is a kindergarten activity that blends art and science by using magnets, paint, and objects found around the house to create a picture.

This science fair project idea produces sounds by creating vibrations using different objects.

In this fun guessing game, your child uses his sense of smell and taste to figure out what is in the container. Here's how to play:

Show your preschooler how to make a print of a butterfly using her hand as a tool--a great way to stimulate her sense of touch.

Determine how good we are at direct and indirect observation.

Help children understand the power of germs and the importance of hand washing with this visual activity that introduces the concept of scientific inquiry.

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

Make scented sensory cloud dough. Add it to a sensory table, activity station, or put it in a baggie for extra at-the-park entertainment!

The objective of this science project is to investigate patterns in fingerprints among family members.

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

In this activity, you'll send your kindergartener on a scavenger hunt to find sounds and create a sound recording. Here's how!

Invite your kindergarten scientist to conduct this color mixing experiment to discover which primary hues make a rainbow of secondary colors.

In this outdoor science activity you'll find tips on how to create a nature journal by choosing a native plant or animal and tracking that species.

By incorporating natural materials and the powers of observation, your child will become a backyard naturalist while building early writing and drawing skills!

Create your very own scented hand sanitizer that will help your child to keep those nasty germs at bay!

In this popcorn experiment, students can explore how two things made out of the same material can have very different appearances and densities.

Determine which environment keeps an ice cube frozen for the longest duration. Inspect and record your observations when cubes melt.

The goal of this science fair project is to determine which cheese grows mold the fastest: Vermont Cheddar, American, Brie, or Camembert?

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.

Boost your preschooler's attention to detail by getting her to explore the differences between two different pumpkins: large and small.

The purpose of this science project is to investigate which will grow larger plants: compost, soil and Miracle - Gro, a mixture of both.

Make an edible play dough with your child to help her develop her sensory and motor skills.

Introduce your child to preliminary science concepts by challenging them to do this fun and simple cloud observation activity.
