Abstract

Interactive chemistry activities developed for science museums are described and discussed. The activities are specifically designed for young museum visitors (6–10 years old). Each activity involves a challenge problem that can be successfully mastered by working with some simple chemicals. They are designed to be done on a table or rolling cart in a museum. No flames, stirrers, or elaborate equipment are needed. Each activity takes about 5–10 minutes.
