In this engineering activity, learners construct sturdy geodesic structures out of gumdrops and toothpicks. Use this activity to explore engineering principles as well as sturdy shapes and triangles.

In this activity, learners design a bungee jump for an egg using nylon stockings.

In this activity, learners will explore how and why weight distribution works.

In this activity learners will build roller coasters and test them using small balls or marbles.

In this activity, learners examine baking powder, a combination of three powders: baking soda, cream of tartar, and cornstarch.

In this engineering activity, challenge learners to build a tower out of 10 sheets of newspaper and 3 feet of masking tape, which can hold a golf ball balancing at the top.

In this activity, challenge learners to design a roller coaster ride for a marble using cardboard and other simple materials.

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.

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