In this activity, learners explore the engineering design process and the basic mechanics behind building bridges as they build one themselves using gumdrops and toothpicks.

In this activity, learners will use a variety of household and/or natural objects to design a sculpture that balances from a single point.

No glue is needed for learners of any age to become marshmallow architects or engineers.

In this activity, learners design and build a NASA rover using raw pasta and candy with a limited imaginary budget.

In this design challenge, learners will create wind-powered contraptions to transport a load, such as a cupcake or another small object, and test to see if they work.

In this activity, learners build small animated toys that move.

In this project, students explore how levers work, by making a puppet with moving limbs.

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

In this activity, learners build a bird that flies in place with help from a motor, wire, and some straws.

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.
