Category: Kids “OBOV – STEM FAMILY EVENT” Hosted by Walking Mountains Science Center


February 6, 2021

Does your child like to build and design things? In partnership with One Book One Valley, Walking Mountains has a CHALLENGE for you – if you choose to accept it!

Join us as you and your child BUILD your own protective egg sled together – can it survive the CRASH?! This event will challenge you and a child to put your heads together and use critical thinking, engineering creativity, and hands-on construction skills. Join us for a family-friendly, STEM-filled Saturday afternoon! During the workshop, you will construct an egg sled out of a given set of materials. This egg sled should protect the egg as it slides down a hillside with structure and comfort! After construction, we will test out our sleds outside on a hillside on campus. Will it survive the ride?!

This program requires pre-registration and is limited to 8 families. The activity is designed to challenge the minds of 4th-8th graders and bring out the curious child in you!
