Check out the videoand you'll see why - it looks so cool! But, our floors are covered in a Lego village connected by wooden train tracks. I confess, I was sorely tempted to choose the popsicle stick chain reaction activity. My Pick of the Day: Popsicle Stick Catapult Design a Back Scratcher: got an itch right in the middle of your back? A popsicle stick contraption can solve that problem.Make Your Own Harmonica!: with a few well-placed sticks, rubber bands, and straws, you can make your very own simple musical instrument.Design a Cell Phone Stand: need something to hold your phone while you video chat or watch YouTube videos? Build the perfect stand yourself.Build a Popsicle Stick Catapult: this small-but-mighty machine can send anything from pom-poms to toys to popcorn flying.Popsicle Stick Chain Reaction: a carefully laid network of popsicle sticks results in an awesome display of kinetic energy as the sticks fly apart.So, for today's STEM fun, I started with the fact that we have popsicle sticks and went hunting through the Science Buddies library of STEM activities for fun activities to do with popsicle sticks. What do we have at my house? Popsicle sticks (aka craft sticks) - we have lots and lots of popsicle sticks, which turns out to be great because they're quite handy for all sorts building and science projects. But that approach is not an option right now, so I'm getting better at making do with what we have at home. I like to decide what I'm making and then go gather the things I need - even if that involves a trip to the store. Have a look and give it a try! Here we go.Ĭheck our Innovative Collection of DIY Catapult Models using variety of materials 1.Are you the kind of person who starts with the end product and then figures out the list of things you need to make that happen, or are you the kind of person who looks around at what you have and then uses that to inform the end product? The last two months have taught me that when it comes to cooking, crafts, and science activities, I tend to be the former. In this post, I have included 10 different methods of making mini catapults right from your home or school. Let us begin with some STEM challenge activities for kids that allow them to create homemade mini catapults in an excellent way.
Do not worry! Our homemade medieval rocket launchers are not dangerous but still recommend to supervise the children while making the beautiful and creative mini catapults, medieval rocket launchers. Let our kids learn this physical science activity hands-on and in an easy way. Using the same engineering design process, we are going to make our own mini-versions of catapults in different methods. The best process to make these amazing catapults is ‘The Engineering Design Process’, which our ancient and modern engineers utilizes everyday till date. How does a catapult work? Catapult stores up potential energy and releases all at once as kinetic energy which makes a projectile or object throw far away (much further than a human could alone) through the air to the fixed targeted area. Today, we are going to turn our young scientists into little engineers! Yes, we are going to combine STEM, physics, and craft in a surprising way of creating “Catapult”.
