Science fair project that develops latent fingerprints on a non-porous objects by converting superglue from a solid state to a gaseous state.

This project examines what types of objects burn and which burn faster and cleaner.

This project explores ways to prevent static electrical shocks.

Test your friends to find out if you can replicate the placebo effect's incredible results.

This project examines whether playing music during class helps students learn or if it distracts students from learning.

This classic children's game-connecting two cups with a string-demonstrates sound's ability to travel through air vs through a solid.

This science fair project idea highlights decomposition rates by comparing how long it takes an item to decompose in a compost pile vs. a landfill.

Discover flight initiation distance as you play around in the park with this fun bird watching project!

Handedness and footedness refer to whether people prefer to use their left or right hand and foot. In this experiment, test hand and foot dominance.

Science fair project that identifies the differences between soils from different environments and attempts to figure out why those differences exist.

This science experiment tests why guacamole goes brown and if leaving the pit in will stop guacamole from turning brown.

This science project has students collect wood samples and invent new uses for different types of wood based on its properties.

How well can people recall what they have observed. Test your knowledge in this fun experiment.

The objective of this science fair project is to set up a compost bin to convert food scraps and organic waste.
