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.

Stories change as you retell them. The objective of this science fair project is to demonstrate how information gets interpreted, distorted and changed.

Uh-oh! Is that a pill sitting on the counter or a piece of candy?

In this project children practice the scientific method while playing with puffy paint.

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 leads to an understanding that a whole may be built of smaller parts that fit and work together and provides an introduction to basic tools.

This science experiment has students test whether a snail moves faster on concrete or dirt.

The objective of this science project is to determine the length of time for different seeds to germinate.

In this activity, your child will be challenged to make a tower using paper cups.

The objective of this science fair project is to examine the effects of temperature on salt and water solutions, as they form crystals over time.

Slime: It's oozy, it's goopy, and it's just plain fun! Learn how to make slime with this fun science fair project.

This science fair project teaches about mold. Students will test different foods to see which grow mold the fastest.
