This is one of our favorite Halloween STEAM activities! We paired a book with a simple physics activity for kids to make a spooky ghost sounds STEM activity!

This Spooky Ghost Sounds STEM Halloween Activity is a fantastic way to incorporate a simple physics experiment with some Halloween fun!

A great activity for preschool and kindergarten aged kiddos is working hands-on with objects to learn addition and subtraction. We decided to work with candy corn to compose and decompose the number 10, but you can use other objects such as m&ms, fruit loops, popcorn, legos, etc.

It’s October and that means a ton of candy is coming to a household near you in the very near future! We don’t let the kids eat all of their candy. Let’s be real, there are some candies that no one really likes to eat.

We like to use those candies for experiments! In this yummy candy chemistry experiment, we are testing to see if sour candy is acidic with a simple acid-base reaction.

Use your leftover Halloween candy to learn how to code sequences with this unplugged coding candy corn preschool sequences activity.

We set out to use items around the house to observe how a chemical reaction produces a new substance. Just kidding, we set out to make something EXPLODE.

To do that, we sat down and learned all about acids, bases, and chemical reactions and applied what we knew to our daily lives. I bored the kids with chemical equations and talked their ears off until surely they thought we weren’t doing anything exciting. Then, things went kaBOOm and they were thrilled!

This static electricity zombie crossing STEAM activity is super easy and eerily fun! With only a few supplies needed, your walking dead will be up and moving in no time!

This activity is so much fun and you can make all sorts of different shapes to test!

Fall is such a fun time for STEAM activities from pumpkins to potions and every spooky thing in between, I love how many great projects fall into the season!

My kids really wanted to make a pumpkin explode. We’ve been talking about it since this Summer and we were super excited to try out some chemical and physical reactions to create some exploding and erupting pumpkins!

It’s Fall, which means it’s the perfect time of year to go on some nature walks! We tend to collect too many things in our specimen bags while we are walking, so we always have a bunch of cool leaves, sticks, acorns, and more to explore!

After our nature walk, we decided to take our lovely leaves and make some leaf rubbings with a twist! We created leaf rubbings to learn about and capture the nature of leaves as well as explore how our chosen art medium interacted with different types of paper.

My girls are super artistic. I love trying STEAM activities that incorporate their artistic side to teach them scientific concepts.

This is a great STEAM activity to learn about simple circuits and parallel circuits. Add some artistic flair to that circuitry knowledge and make pumpkin paper circuits!

These Free Halloween Activity worksheets contain a few different exercises for kids of different learning levels, including: I-Spy, Word Search, Number Recognition, Letter Recognition, Pumpkin Coloring Page, & Less Than or Greater Than Pumpkins!

My youngest two girls and I have been busy working on some fun fall projects including this preschool pumpkin art made with cotton swabs!

Fall is a great time to investigate some of our favorite seasonal things — like pumpkins!! We’ve been doing so many activities with pumpkins that the employees at our Walmart keep asking me what I am doing buying so many!

This preschool pumpkin investigation is fantastic for young learners like my little Thea who isn’t quite ready for any of our other pumpkin activities. From exploding pumpkins to painting pumpkins, we’ve already done a fair share of pumpkin activities this year!

Have you ever walked into a spiderweb? We sure have! In this Halloween STEAM activity, we are learning how to make sticky spider webs and exploring proteins!

We combined optical illusion art with crayon resist art to make a super cool Halloween project for kids. Your kiddos can make a really cool spiderweb using a wax resist (crayon resist) art technique with a white crayon and some Bingo daubers!

You can absolutely make beautiful chalk pastel pumpkin art with your kids by using a glue resist art method. I did this project with my toddler! Yes, you read that right! I know what you are thinking…how in the world did I get a 2yr old to draw like that?

This pumpkin balance activity is great for kids of all ages! Can you complete the Balancing Pumpkins STEAM Challenge?

In today’s digital world, binary code is perhaps one of the most important number systems.
