Challenge Island: STEAMing Through the Holidays!
Join us at the After School Scholar for a special winter-themed event where kids can unleash their creativity and explore the world of STEAM!
This dynamic, hands-on workshop features two exciting projects designed to engage curious minds. Drop the kids off for two hours of fun, or come and stay to join the action!
From 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM
Children will complete two unique STEAM projects: one collaborative team challenge and one personal project they get to keep!
Project Highlights:
-
Engineer an Avalanche Mountain Ride: Teams will take on a gravity-defying challenge, applying engineering principles to design and construct a course that guides a snowball avalanche around the corners of their customized "Ski Lodge." They will explore concepts of slope, weight, and the engineering process.
-
Make Icy Color-Changing Slime: Students will delve into chemistry and material science to transform ingredients into mesmerizing, temperature-reactive, color-changing slime. This is a fascinating, hands-on exploration of polymers and chemical reactions.
Don't miss this opportunity for holiday-themed STEAM fun!
