The summer science activities section is for students and parents can get ideas for educational activities, projects and experiments.
Summer vacation can be filled with days of boredom for elementary-age children. Parents struggle to find activities which fill time and, if on a budget, do not involve large expense. Planning several cool science projects can serve a dual purpose – keeping a child’s mind busy and active and possibly discovering an award winning science […]
Summer vacation is about half way over for most of the kids in the United States. However, there are some schools in the country that have a year round school program. If you happen to be in summer school or in a year round program and your time is during the summer then chances are […]
Summer is the perfect time to begin your search for science fair competitions. As a kid I loved to enter these contests. I found that they not only helped to direct my science skill development, but they were also a lot of fun. Also, as a side effect of entering a lot of skill contests, […]
Science is all around you. Whether you get inspired by the plants and animals as you go out for walks in the countryside or find visits to museums, planetariums, zoos or aquariums a fascinating way to find out about things like dinosaurs or animals at the zoo, make it an adventure to learn how things […]
Summer vacation is just beginning. Don’t let summer boredom set in. You can eliminate your summer boredom by participating in the Summer Slide Prevention Program (see below) and by conducting your own summer science fair projects. One type of summer project that you can work on is a plant project. If you […]
As I mentioned last week, summertime is a great time to get out and explore the world and learn new things. This week I’d like to talk about a summertime activity that can (1) entertain you and (2) provide you with ideas for super science fair projects. This activity is going to a science museum. […]
Summer is when we all get a little more active so if you are looking for middle school summer science activities then consider using science fair science kits. For example, you can examine the mechanics of your summer sports, you can look at why your boat stays afloat in the lake, you can explore the […]
Summer is my favorite time of year to prepare for science fair success. It is the perfect time of year to really expand your horizons as a student of life. However, it is also the perfect time of year to prepare for your fall science fair projects. Colleges and Universities are not only looking at […]

The good news is that there are hundreds of things available for kids to do during the summer, most of which will be fun and educational. I always wanted my kids to have fun everyday during the […]
Do you know that summer learning loss has been studied by scientists since 1906? All students experience summer slide, sometimes called summer brain drain, when there are extended absences from learning activities. It is a fact that children lose up to 2-1/2 months of learning, depending on the economic status of the family. By the […]
Building in 1 Direction: The rods can be connected in-line without the intermediate need of a connector, almost reducing to half the quantity of parts required to build models.
Building in 2 Direction: While the assembled rod looks uniform with nothing protruding, it may provide building directions vertically and sideways by simply snap fitting another rod to one of the bi-directional side cavities. This innovative design allows snap assembly on both sides simultaneously and greatly enhances the expandability of the System.
Building in 3 Directions: The System is capable of tackling with the same ease as all the other building directions. All directions of the 3D space are accessible by combining the rods with the various types of connectors.
Connecting in Fixed Angles: This system makes it possible to build complex models that require connections of 45°
Building Machines: The optimized design of Engino components consists of only 18 different types of multi-functional parts. Yet you can build simple and complex machines. Following the same design principles of the basic system, a range of different types of gears, pulleys, axles and accessories make it the ideal constructional toy for home and school.
