The goal of this evaporation experiment is to learn about how different external conditions affect drying time.

This science fair project idea compares biodiversity between drops of water.

In this free science fair project idea, we learn about surface tension and how it can support mass—in this case, a floating paper clip.

Science fair project examining barometric pressure, and how it can be used to predict the weather. How does atmospheric pressures relate to weather conditions?

Study the life cycle of the common blowfly as it relates to forensic investigation. Record the first time you see flies, maggots, and eggs.

How does frost form? How fast does it form? Do this simple science project using a plastic glass, rock salt and some water to learn about deposition.

This science fair project idea investigates the hardness property of minerals.

In this plastic wrap science fair project, you'll learn about polymer permeability and find out which plastic wrap keeps food from dehydrating best.

This science fair project looks one of the most important factors affecting seed germination: water. A fun and easy plant biology experiment for 3rd graders.

This classic children's game demonstrates how sound travels through air vs. through a solid.

In this enlightening transpiration experiment, kids will explore how the loss of water from plants through transpiration contributes to the water cycle.

Science fair project that examines the different types of precipitation, evaluates the density of snow and calculates the ratio of snow-to-liquid.

Kids construct a single fixed pulley system to learn how pulleys can make work easier in this cool physics and engineering science fair project idea.

This science fair project idea determines if the size of the parachute will change the rate at which an object falls.
