Have you tried making sun prints yet? If not, this STEAM activity is just right.

Looking for an engineering project? Kids love creating rafts on a hot summer day, because . . . water!

Fireflies are most certainly a big part of summer fun. Running through fields to catch them is such a classic childhood experience. When they come in, have the kids try making a firefly (or lightening bug) circut card.

Speaking of exploding . . . how about some colorful explosions? That is what you will get when you add chalk and a few ingredients to a closed zip-lock bag - KaBoom!

This is a super simple science project. However, it gets lot of attention because it is so interactive. Your kids are going to want to keep checking to see where the shadow falls. A neat way to play around with time, history and science.

If you have a sandbox or access to a place with sand, you really need to give this one a try. Is it messy? You bet! That is part of the fun.
