In this activity, learners build a game that tests their steadiness. Learners construct the game board by setting up an electrical circuit and a wand.

Learners make a circuit board that has questions and answers. When the correct answer is chosen for a question, a circuit is completed and a light illuminates.

In this activity, learners incorporate a simple switch into a battery/bulb circuit. Learners will use their knowledge of circuits to design and make their own switches using common materials.

In this activity, learners explore how a flashlight works, showing the electric circuit and switch functions of this everyday household item.

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

In this design challenge activity, learners invent a pinball-like game where a kick stick hits a ping pong ball into a target that buzzes.

Cool off in the heat with this project! Learners use simple materials to build a fan that runs on a motor.

In this technology activity, learners build simple circuits, design soft circuits using conductive thread, and then sew switch-activated circuits.

In this activity, learners explore an everyday situation, where either of two or more buttons can ring a buzzer.

In this activity, learners construct a device out of a piezoelectric igniter, like those used as barbecue lighters.

In this activity, learners construct cars that are powered by hand-made, electric propellers.

In this activity, learners string a line across the room and build cable cars that can move from on end to the other.

Learners create an electrical-circuit maze out of wire, then try to pass a paperclip through the maze without touching the wire.

In this technology activity, learners build an "alarming" doormat to keep siblings out of their rooms. Use this activity to teach learners about circuits, switches, and sensors.

In this design challenge activity, learners investigate series circuits and motors to build a hand-held "kick stick." Their goal is create a battery-operated device that sends a Ping-Pong ball across

In this activity, learners build a mini dancing robot. This engineering activity introduces learners to electricity, circuits, switches, conductivity, and motors.
