Interactive Science Websites for Kids, Games, Experiments, Projects

These 550 free interactive science sites and apps for children and high school students have games, lessons, experiments and projects. They are mostly free sites and apps to help K-12 students learn earth sciences, animal, human and plant biology, astronomy, and high school physics -- even computer science and engineering.  Many include science simulations and lesson plans for teachers.

Reviews and links for free science apps in astronomy, animals, biology, chemistry, geology, and physics are listed in my post, Free iPad and Android Science Apps for Kids.
