* CreepyChild: "The Small Assassin".

** "The Veldt".

* KidsAreCruel: "All of Summer in a Day".
** "The Playground" and "The Veldt", too.

* ScienceMarchesOn: Pops up in a number of his short stories. For one thing there's several pieces he's written that describe one-piece rockets being used for interplanetary and interstellar travel, as opposed to the multi-stage rockets that gave actually been used.
** ''The Long Rain'' describes a group of astronauts being stranded on Venus, being driven mad by the endless precipitation of the planet's climate, all the while longing for the warmth of one of many "Sun-Domes" that provide heating and plenty of food. This doubles as HilariousInHindsight when you consider that scientists would later discover Venus to not only have an insanely toxic atmosphere, but also to be the ''hottest planet in the solar system'', meaning that a dome heated by ''an artificial sun'' would probably be the last thing on your mind; assuming of course you found some way to set foot on the planet without being incinerated (supposedly it is hot enough to melt lead).

-->A horrible little boy came up to me and said, 'You know in your book ''TheMartianChronicles''?' I said, 'Yes?' He said, 'You know where you talk about Deimos rising in the East?' I said, 'Yes?' He said 'No.' -- So I hit him.
