Science Experiment of the Week ArchiveRMSC

Click here to sign up for the science experiment of the week.

The experiments archived below have been donated by the Rochester Museum & Science Center. Each week we present a new user-friendly experiment that can be performed with materials you have around the house. They demonstrate scientific principles to kids of all ages, and usually include a brief, interesting history of the issue. Even those who aren't science buffs will have fun learning about the topic. Trust us, you'll start to view the world a bit differently once you know the secrets of why things work the way they do.
