    Science Activities for Kids

    Science activities for kids that are easy to do at home.

    My kids love learning with simple science experiments. Scientific explorations teaches kids patience, encourages curiosity and is also just a lot of fun!

    Most of our science projects are easy to do at home, with common household materials. We have ideas for toddlers and tweens and everyone in between. You will find everything from plant science, to chemical reactions, to harnessing the power of electricity. There is something for every interest and skill level.
