The Exploratorium

According to the Exploratorium website, "the Exploratorium isn’t just a museum, it’s an ongoing exploration of science, art, and human perception—a vast collection of online interactives, web features, activities, programs and events that feed your curiosity." Growing up, I loved visiting the Exploratorium in San Francisco and now I am delighted to have access to their science experiments and activities that will be of use in my science classroom.
