You don't have to do them all, but choose the ones you can do easiest at home with the resources you have available. 

There are a variety of science activities involving materials on Education City and a few more attached below! 

Can you test different materials around your house to find out which ones would make a good rain coat. Remember, they must be waterproof! 

Can you create a tent for a teddy bear? The tent will need to be strong, waterproof and warm to keep the teddy bear safe.
