Hone observational skills and introduce the basics of data interpretation with this data gathering activity all about the different colors people wear.

Engage your children with this fun fall activity that integrates math and science. First, your child will excavate to find leaves. Next, they'll examine them to determine the colors. Then, your child will graph their findings.

Okay, engaging in a graphing activity may sound ho-hum, but if you use fun data, it changes the picture entirely.

Liven up a lesson about graphing by helping your third grader compile a bar graph from his classmates' birthday data.

Delay your child's sugar overload, and develop his critical thinking skills, by doing some "sweet sorting" of his Halloween treasures!
