Understanding absorption means understanding why certain fibers and materials can absorb water! Kids will see absorption in action in this simple project.

In this science fair project, we learn how air molecules move as a result of density, convection, and air currents.

This science fair project examines how seeds hitchhike on animals and clothing.

Discover whether different amounts of water added into a wine glass will produce a different pitch when their fingers are rubbed along the rim.

In this experiment, students will create their own version of coquina, a sedimentary rock thatâs formed by seashells and sand, cemented by seawater minerals.

In this project combining nature, art, math, and science, children make rubbings of leaves then observe shapes and structures and sort the leaf images.

This project compares the strength of one, two, and three-ply toilet paper.

In this science fair project, apply the principles of leverage and force by building six simple machines designed to set weights in motion.

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.

Kids will conduct a cool limewater carbon dioxide test that can be performed with common household materials to learn about the chemistry of this common gas.

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

What are the effects of fertilizer on plant growth? What's the best fertilizer type (solid, liquid or powder)? Kids find out in this science fair project idea.

Did you know your body is full of simple machines? This project looks at one of the third-class levers in the human body: your arm!

This science experiment examines the role of fat in food, especially in making bread rise and whipping cream.

This science fair project idea investigates how the shape of an object affects drag.

Have you ever noticed the way a dropped stone makes a fun pattern in a pond or lake? What's the science behind these splashy occurrences?
