In this activity, learners build water-propelled engines from soft drink cans.

In this activity, learners are challenged to design a wind-powered car using only a handful of household materials.

In this activity, learners will use household items to design and build an elevator that will carry 2 passengers to a height of 16 inches...or higher!

In this activity, learners engineer a paper helicopter that spins to the ground when dropped.

In this engineering activity, challenge learners to design a car using only 3 straws, 4 Lifesavers™, 1 piece of paper, 2 paper clips, tape, and scissors.

This activity teaches combustion as the interaction of a fuel source and oxygen.

In this activity, learners are challenged to create a parachute using easily sourced materials in order to transport a LEGO figure safely to the ground.

Learners follow the template to build and fly a paper helicopter.

In this activity, learners engineer a flying glider using paper hoops and a drinking straw.

In this activity, learners construct a rocket powered by the pressure generated from an effervescing antacid tablet reacting with water, and build a launch pad for their rocket.

In this activity, learners work in teams to build and test paper airplanes. Learners try to fly their airplanes directly on the runway and earn points for accuracy.

In this activity, learners design, build and test a model suspension bridge for sturdiness and strength.

In this activity, learners use tinfoil to build and test their own boats - which designs will float, and which will sink?

In this activity, learners use design thinking to design and build their own bridge out of household materials including adhesives and/or connectors.

The goal of this activity is to build a miniature bobsled that is either the fastest or the slowest. Learners use recycled materials to design, build, and test their bobsled on a bobsled track.

In this design activity, learners create a vehicle that can transport a load, like a favorite toy or as a recycled object, from the top of a zipline to the bottom using only gravity.

The goal of this activity is to design the fastest sailboat or one that carries the most treasure.

Learners design, build, and test models of "dragon boats" made from up to three milk cartons.

In this activity, learners explore moving air and the physics of lift and drag by constructing homemade wind tunnels.
