Program Description

Event Details

In this hands-on program, homeschoolers will change the direction and strength of a wrecking ball’s push to solve a problem—How can they knock down a wall of cups without knocking down the paper houses behind them. They’ll use both structural and demolition engineering principles in this challenge. For ages 5-12.
