Children's Kit Gallery

Introduce children to Braille with this fun kit! Includes 26 double-sided tiles that feature upper case letters on one side, and lower case on the other. Braille symbol appears below each print letter. Also includes a Braille book and a touch and feel picture card set featuring words in both Sign Language and Braille.

Kids practice building dozens of simple 3-letter words, sound by sound! Our magnet board comes with everything children need to build 36 different words, including letter magnets and familiar picture magnets. Children just stick a picture onto the board, then build its corresponding word…letter by letter! 

For this project, use the books, guides, activity cards and binoculars to help you learn about birds. Then, you can participate in a variety of seasonal Citizen Science projects relating to birds and birding!

For this project, document and identify plants and animals around you. Use your smartphone and clip-on lenses included in the kit to take and share detailed pictures of nature and help create a living record of life on Earth.

For this project, help scientists understand the sky from above and below. Simply photograph clouds, record sky observations and share with NASA via the GLOBE Observer app.

For this project, observe trees to understand changes in biomass and effects on the carbon cycle. Then, use your mobile devices to measure tree heights and report tree circumference.

Use the tools in this kit to document mosquito habitats and identify different types of mosquito larvae. Then record your observations using your smartphone and the NASA GLOBE Observer app.

For this project, help gather light pollution data. Use the Sky Quality Meter included in the kit to measure and record sky brightness.

For this project, help scientists dedicated to monarch conservation across North America. Simply examine milkweed plants and look for monarchs on them.

For this project, learn how to capture real-time measurements using an AirBeam sensor. You'll also measure, visualize, and share air quality data via Aircasting Maps.

For this project, identify and count pollinators as they visit flowering plants. Simply observe any flowering plant for less than 15 minutes, count and identify the pollinators that visit the plant, then log data online as instructed to participate in the project.

For this project, help scientists better understand tree squirrel ecology. Take a look around outside your home, office, school, or anywhere you are. Simply count squirrels and record your findings online.
