Scientific Method

Are you really picky about food? Or do you know someone who is? It might be because he or she is a supertaster! To supertasters, the flavors of foods are much stronger than to average tasters. Are you a supertaster? Find out with this tongue-based science fair project! Read more

Play-Doh Math

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Have you ever had fun making different figures or colorful creations using some Play-Doh? You can squish and stretch a single piece of Play-Doh® to make all sorts of shapes. How does changing the shape of a piece of Play-Doh affect its volume? In this science project, you will find out by testing how changing a piece of dough's shape affects its dimensions (length, width, and height), and how these changes are related to the dough's volume.

Where Did All the Stars Go?

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

One of my favorite things to do when I was a kid was to go outside and look at the stars. As an adult, I moved to a major city and the stars seemed to vanish from the sky. Where did they go? Read more

How Many Cranks Does It Take to Power a Hand-Cranked Radio?

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

If you lose power, you can probably still access the internet and read the news with a cell phone. But what if the power goes out for so long that your phone battery dies, or if cellular service also goes down? How would you get news from the outside world? In emergencies, you can use a hand-crank radio, which is powered by manually turning a crank. But just how much power do you get when you turn the crank? How long will the radio stay on before you need to charge it again? Try this project to… Read more

Soil Compaction

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Have you ever had to dig a hole in really hard soil? It is a lot of work! In this science project you can make an instrument to test the soil and find out how compacted it is, before you dig! Read more

Separating Glitter with a Homemade Centrifuge

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

It is fun to shake up a snow globe and watch the "snow" slowly fall. You can imagine that if the snow fell down very quickly it would be disappointing. But there are times when scientists in a laboratory want this to happen. Scientists use samples that have liquid mixed with small, solid pieces (like the inside of a snow globe), and they need all of the solid pieces in a clump, separated from the liquid. Instead of waiting for the pieces to slowly fall out of the liquid, scientists speed up… Read more

You Say Po-tay-to and I Say Po-tah-to, but No Matter What, There's Starch in Those Taters!

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

French fries, hash browns, mashed potatoes with gravy, potato latkes, there are so many things to make with the humble potato. The potato is a tuber from the perennial plant Solanum Tuberosum of the Solanaceae family. There are actually about 5,000 varieties of potatoes, but most of them can be traced back to the original potato from southern Peru. This single ancestor originated more than 10,000 years ago. In addition to being high in vitamins and minerals, potatoes have a varying amount of… Read more

How Many Letters?

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

Can you remember all of your ABC's? Computers need to "remember" letters too. Every time we use a computer to write a story, the computer needs to "remember" the letters in the story by saving them to the computer's memory as a file. In this experiment find out how much memory it takes for the computer to "remember" a series of letters. Read more

Which Simple Machines Do I Use the Most?

Science Fair Project Idea

Scientific Method

When you think of a machine, you probably think of computers or robots. But what if I told you that machines have been around for centuries? Would you believe me? Try this experiment to see which of these simple machines you use around your house. You might even use some of them everyday! Read more
