18. Do a Jigsaw Puzzle

Jigsaw puzzles can be the perfect challenge when you’re feeling bored. There are easy puzzles for younger kids, and difficult ones for older children. If you don’t have any around the house, and you don’t want to spend full price, you can often find inexpensive puzzles at places like Good Will.

19. Make Paper Airplanes

Make some paper airplanes and see how well you can get it to fly. There are all kind of different designs online. You could even use a bucket to play paper airplane cornhole. Try to see if you can get the airplane to land in the bucket.

20. Create a Time Capsule

Time capsules are a creative way to send a message to your future self. Gather up objects that are symbolic of today’s world (food packaging, magazines, the ribbon you won for swimming, etc.). Some up with some of your own ideas to make it unique to you. Then hide it somewhere and don’t open it for at least ten years!

21. Do a Shape Scavenger Hunt

A scavenger or treasure hunt can be the perfect antidote to a boring day. There are several pre-made indoor scavenger hunts online or you can create your own list of things to find. If you can’t think of anything, make a list of shapes and try to find something in your house that is that shape.

22. Make Homemade Ice Cream

There are so many great podcasts for kids out there. Pop in your headphones and listen while you take a walk or do some chores.

29. Look Through Old Photo Albums.

Do you parents have old photo albums lying around the house or stored away in the basement? You might be surprised how entertaining it is to look through them. You won’t believe how young your parents used to be!

30. Facetime a Relative.

When’s the last time you talked to your grandparents, aunts and uncles, or cousins? I’m willing to be they would be really happy to get a FaceTime call from you!

31. Do Yoga!

Yoga is a way to gently stretch and strengthen your body. Cosmic Kids is a great place to start if you’ve never done yoga before. 

32. Rainy Day Window Art

That’s right! If you have dry erase markers, you can actually draw a picture on the windows. The dry erase marker will wipe right off, so there’s no mess for you.

33. Mud Paint

When the rain clears up, you can do some fun rainy day outdoor activities. There will be lots of mud outside – perfect for painting! Grab your rain boots and some containers you don’t care much about, some plain paper, and a handful of old paintbrushes. Outside, scoop a healthy amount of dirt into each container, and then add a small amount of water and good amount of food coloring. If you don’t have food coloring, this will be just as fun with plain old mud. Some recipes call for dish soap to help prevent stains in clothes, but it’s also optional. You’re ready to mud paint!

34. Make Mud Pies

When the rain clears up, there will be lots of mud outside. Grab some old pots and pans and head outside to make mud pie! Fill the tins with mud and then decorate them with rocks, leaves, and flower petals. You may not be able to eat them, but they sure are fun to look at!

35. Magic Paper Towel Tree

It’s magic! Fold one piece of paper towel in half so that it looks like a book. On the inside of the book, draw a tree trunk and branches, with colorful leaves and fruit. You can add sunshine, blue sky, and anything you fancy! Now, fold your paper towel book so that you can’t see your drawing anymore. Drop it into a bowl of water, and watch how your colorful drawing magically appears! What other spring sketches can you draw?

36. Homemade Lava Lamp

Going for a 70’s vibe? You can make your very own lava lamp right at home.

Overview:

This simple lava lamp experiment is especially a hit with kids ages 4-12 (and beyond!), and it will take their favorite adults back a few decades, too! This easy science activity teaches kids about density.

What You Need:

A clean plastic bottle (or several plastic bottles)

Water

Vegetable Oil

Fizzing tablets (like an Alka-Seltzer tablet)

Food Coloring

Steps:

Fill the bottle up with water about 1/4th full. Pour the vegetable oil into the bottle until is almost full. Use a funnel if you have one. Wait a few moments and watch as the oil and water separates.

Then, add a few drops of your favorite color food coloring. Watch the color make its way through the oil.

The next step is to break your fizzy tablet in half and drop part of it into the bottle. Watch the bubble blobs form.

Finally, if you have a flashlight, turn off the lights and drop in another half tablet. Shine the flashlight through the lava lamp while the blobs are bubbling!

What’s Happening:

The oil floats on top of the water because it is less dense (lighter) than water. The food coloring has the same density as the water so it sinks through the oil and mixes with the water. As the tablet dissolves it creates a gas called carbon dioxide.

Gas is lighter than water so it floats to the top, bringing some color with it from the food coloring. When the air releases from the colored water blob, the water gets heavy again and sinks.

37. Make Pepper Jump

Surface tension is a foundational scientific principle that even young kids can begin to learn about. This simple experience using water, soap, and black pepper will get kids of all ages exploring this useful concept.

What You Need:

black pepper

a plate or bowl

water

liquid soap

Steps:

First, fill the plate with a thin layer of water, less than an inch deep is plenty.

Then, sprinkle the pepper on to the water, covering a much of the water surface as possible. The more pepper, the more fun.

Finally, dip your finger into the liquid soap. Touch the pepper and see what happens!

What’s Happening:

The soap is breaking the surface tension of the water! Surface tension exists in water because the water molecules (the littles pieces of the water) like to stick together.

38. Make Homemade Slime

Overview: 

What kid doesn’t love slime? This is one of our favorite science experiments because it’s a sure kid-pleaser! In this basic recipe, you can make some of your own right in your kitchen, and have fun squeezing it with your bare hands all day long. Slime has quickly become one of those classic science experiments that every family should try at least once!

Materials:

Water

-White school glue

-food coloring

-borax

-two bowls

Make Raisins Dance

39. Dancing Raisins

Overview:

Home science experiments don’t have to be complicated. In this very easy science experiment that’s perfect for young kids, you’ll need a few simple ingredients that you probably already have in your household: clear soda, a glass of water, and a handful of raisins. With these simple ingredients, you’ll produce chemical reactions that your kids can watch in real time!

What You’ll Need:

Clear Soda

A clear glass of water

Handful of raisins

Steps:

First, you fill one glass with clear soda, and another glass with plain water or a different liquid that does not have gas bubbles. Then, place the raisins in each glass, and watch how they dance in the glass with clear soda.

The gas bubbles from the soda carry the raisins upwards. When they pop, the raisin sinks again.

What’s happening?

Once the carbon dioxide bubbles reach the surface of the soda they pop and the gas is released into the air. This makes the raisin lose buoyancy and fall back down to the bottom of the glass. This is why the raising acts differently in different liquids. 

40. Shine Some Pennies

Overview:

You definitely have some dirty pennies lying around your house, so let’s put them to good use in a simple and fun science experiment that even young kids can enjoy. Pennies are copper, and they are often in circulation for years (yuck!), so they often appear very tarnished. In this experience, you’re going to see if soap or vinegar (or other liquids) do a better job at cleaning the exterior of the dirty copper penny.

What You’ll Need

dirty pennies

2 paper cups

Vinegar

Dish soap

Paper towel

Other liquids from around the house (ketchup, soda, etc.)

Steps:

First, make some guesses about which liquid will make the penny the shiniest.

Then, put each penny in a paper cup. In one up, pour in enough vinegar to totally cover the dirty penny. In the other cup, pour in enough dish soap to totally cover the dirty penny.

Wait about ten minutes. A

After ten minutes, take the pennies out, rinse them in water, and rub them with a paper tower. Now compare the pennies and see how clean they got!

Lastly, try it with other liquids from around the house.

What’s Happening:

Pennies get dull over time because the copper on the exterior reacts with oxygen from the air. The copper and oxygen form copper oxides that make the penny dull and dark.

The acetic acide in the vinegar dissolves these chemicals and leaves the penny looking new and shiny.

Dish soap is great for cleaning lots of things, but it can’t dissolve copper oxides.

41. Mini Volcanos

Overview: 

This super easy baking soda and vinegar volcano eruption is a real crowd-pleaser for kids of all ages, and your kids will be begging to do it over and over again!

All you need is a few very basic household ingredients, and your colorful volcano will be erupting in no time. It only takes about three minutes to prep.

If you want this to be a no mess science experiment, plan to do it outside on the dirt or on rocks.

Ingredients

Plastic cup

Water

3-4 Tbs of baking soda at least

1 tsp of dish soap

Food coloring (or washable paint if you want to avoid staining)

1 cup (8 oz) of Vinegar

Steps:

First, combine your base ingredients by putting the water inside of the plastic cup and filling it about 2/3 full.

Then add the baking soda, dish soap, and a little bit of food coloring or washable paint. Using washable paint instead of food coloring will help you avoid staining.

Stir the ingredients together.

Then, pour in the vinegar until it starts foaming and pouring out of the cup.

Repeat as necessary with more colors. Your kids will definitely be asking for more.

What’s Happening: 

The “lava” bubbles that erupt are filled with carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide is a gas that forms when an acid — the vinegar — reacts with a base — the baking soda.

42. Water Cycle In A Bag

Overview:

This is one of the best science experiments to teach your kids about the water cycle, and it’s so easy to do!

Materials:

-Zip lock bag

-permanent marker

-water

-blue food coloring

-clear tape

Steps:

First, use a permanent market to draw a sky on the upper half of your ziplock bag. Include clouds and the sun. 

Next, fill a cup with water and add a few drops of blue food coloring. This will help the water be more visible to your kids. Mix it up until it’s a striking blue color. 

Then, pour the water into the bag and zip it tight so no water escapes.

Now, hang your bag up on a window that gets a lot of sunshine. Affix it with tape on the corner to ensure it doesn’t fall. 

In a couple of hours, you can check on your bag, and then check again in about a day. You will eventually start to see drops of water sticking to the side of the bag. Some will be in the “clouds” and other drops will be coming down like rain.

What’s Happening?

The sun is heating up the water in the bag, which turns the water into a gaseous state in a process called evaporation. This happens in our atmosphere, too. Because the water is in a bag and has nowhere to go, it sticks to the sides of the bag, turning back into a liquid. This is called condensation. This experiment demonstrates the power of the sun to transform water into different states.

43. Sugar Water Rainbows 

Overview: 

This science experiment is especially meant for older kids, but it can me modified for kids of all ages. Your kids will love this colorful experience about density and buoyancy, and all you need are some common household ingredients.

What You Need:

• food colorings (preferably in rainbow colors including red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple)
• water
• a clear straw
• sugar
• 6 cups
• tablespoon

Steps:

• First, fill each of the cups with the same amount of water.
• Next, add the food coloring, one color in each cup, preferably in rainbow order.
• Line the cups up next to each other.
• In the first cup, do not add any sugar at all.
• In the second cup, add one tablespoon of sugar.
• In the third cup, add two tablespoon of sugar.
• In the fourth cup, add three tablepoons of sugar, and so on.
• Stir each mixture until all the sugar is dissolved in each glass.
• The next step is to make a sugar rainbow by placing the end of the straw in the first cup (the cup with no sugar), only about a half of an inch.
• Cover the top of the straw with your thumb before lifting it out of the water so that the water does not fall out of the straw.
• Now dip the straw into the second cup (1 tablespoon sugar). This time, insert it deeper so that the end is one inch below the water level. In one quick move, release the thumb and recap again. Now you should have two layers of color.
• Keep dipping the straw into each solution from the one with the least sugar to the one with five tablespoons of sugar. Each time, the straw is inserted half an inch deeper.

What’s happening? 

Density is the amount of substance (mass) within the volume occupied by the object. If two cups have the same amount of water (i.e. same volume), the one with more sugar is denser than the one with less sugar.

Buoyancy is determined by relative density. The solution with less density floats above the solution with higher density. That is why the color don’t mix.

Sugary water has higher density than plain water. The solution with more sugar has higher density than the one with less sugar. If you have inserted the straw in the solutions from the least sugar to the most sugar, then the color don’t mix and you have a sugar water rainbow.

44. DIY Parachute

Overview:

You can learn about gravity by making a DIY parachute for a light-weight toy. The parachute is easily made from materials around your house, and you can experiment with different strategies and objects.

Materials:

• Plastic Bag (i.e. grocery bag)
• Yard/String
• Paper Cup
• Scissors

Steps:

First, use the scissors to remove the handles from the plastic bag. Next, poke four holes around the plastic bag so that they are the same distance apart and on opposite sides of the bags.

Then, cut four holes into the rim of the paper cut.

You’ll also need to cut four pieces of yarn, 10-12 inches long. Thread one piece of yarn through the hole in the plastic cup and tie the yarn to the cup with a knot. Repeat with all four strands of yarn in the remaining holes.

Next, thread the other end of the pieces of yarn through the hole in the plastic bag and tie a knot. 

Finally, personalize and decorate your cup with stickers, paint, crayons or markers.

Now it’s time to find a toy that is going to take a ride in your parachute. Launch your parachute into the air and see what happens!

Experiment with putting different objects into the paper cup and see how it affects the parachute’s effectiveness. Does the parachute flight time increase or decrease?

You can also try creating the parachute with different materials to replace the paper bag, such as a paper towel or napkin, and see how that affects the performance.

45. Make Invisible Ink

In this fun experiment, your kids can write secret messages that they will learn how to reveal scientifically. You need only basic materials, and it’s sure to be a big hit.

Materials:

• Cotton swab
• lamp or light bulm
• plain white paper
• bowl or cup
• lemon juice

Steps:

• First, squeeze the lemon juice into a bowl or cup and mix in a few drops of water. 
• Next, dip the cotton swap into the lemon juice / water mixture, and write a secret message or draw a secret picture onto the plain white paper.
• Wait a few moments for the paper to dry and for the juice to become invisible.
• Finally, hold the paper close to a light bulb or lamp and reveal your secret messages.

What’s Happening?

Lemon juice contains carbon compounds that are colourless at room temperature. The heat source (in this case the light bulb) breaks down the compounds and thereby releases the carbon. The carbon oxidizes when it comes into contact with the air. It then turns brown, making your invisible message visible under the hot light bulb.

46. Dry Erase Marker Magic

Overview:

In this fun and easy experiements, you’ll watch your very own drawing come to life and move around!

Materials:

• Glass Plate
• Dry Erase Marker
• Water

Steps:

• First, draw a picture on the plate with the dry erase marker. Try a stick figure to start!
• Then, slowly pour water onto the plate. You’ll see the drawing slowly lift up.
• Finally, make your drawing move around by swirling around the water.

What’s Happening?

The marker is a mixture of ink pigments and alcohol. When you pour the water on it, the alcohol dissolves, and the ink pigments become a solid that slides off the glass when it gets wet.

47. Homemade Play Dough

Overview: 

This is a classic DIY project, and kids of all ages will love it. 

Materials:
