Family and Homeschool Activities for Teaching About Milliliters and Liters

These family and homeschool activities are designed to complement the BrainPOP Jr. Milliliters and Liters topic page, which includes a movie, quizzes, online games, printable activities, and more.

Cook with Your Kids

Cook with your kid! Cooking and baking offers real-life opportunities to practice measuring in liters and milliliters. Look for recipes that use liters and milliliters, or convert the volume measurement so that they can practice using these units.

Shopping Field Trip

Take your child on a trip to the supermarket and encourage him or her to find items that are measured in milliliters or liters and make note of how many liters or milliliters are in each product. You can have your child draw the products she or he finds on index cards and label each with the measurements. Back at home, invite your child to sort the cards to find products with similar volumes or, as an added challenge, convert a measurement in liters into milliliters.
