STEAM: Build a "Bone" Bridge!

Kids dive into an engineering challenge where they'll construct their own bridges using everyday craft supplies like Q-tips, popsicle sticks, string, pipe cleaners, and straws. During the session, young builders experiment with different shapes, test how balance and tension affect their designs, and make adjustments to strengthen their creations. It's a great way for kids to see how the principles behind bone structure can inspire real engineering solutions. This hands-on activity weaves together science, technology, engineering, art, and math as kids work through the design-and-test cycle. They'll explore measurement, symmetry, and structural support while flexing their creative problem-solving skills. The event is completely free and perfect for families looking to make learning fun.
