Balloon Powered Car
This was one of our first science projects, and it was a lot of fun! The goal was to build a mini car out of household items that runs by expelling air out of a balloon. It was quite a challenge getting the car to go properly, but with tests and adjustments, we were able to get them to go. This will be a good project to do again!

Popsicle Stick Bridge
This classic experiment was a fun one too. One of the bridges was able to hold 20-30 lbs. This is another project that will be interesting to keep trying again with new designs!

Lego Bridge
After building a bridge out of popsicle sticks, we wanted to build another one, this time out of Legos. One of the bridges held 50lbs before we ran out of weights!

Lego and Play-Doh Challenges
The older students really enjoy building with Legos. For a Lego build challenge, the goal is to build something specific out of Legos. The younger students play and build with either Legos or Play-Doh depending on the challenge.

Playhouse
Thank you Tony and Octavia for sending this playhouse to us! The older students helped assemble the house, and they all helped decorate it. This made for some fun play time!
