This holiday season, give the gifts of engineering, imagination and creativity with Challenge Island’s winter-themed STEAM workshops for kids.
Engineer an Avalanche Mountain Ride
Visit Avalanche Mountain to learn about the characteristics and causes of an avalanche. Students will work with their teams to Construct a course that takes a snowball avalanche around 90-degree corners of their fully Designed "Ski Lodge" where skiers can escape. They will discover the magic of slope, weight, & gravity while following the engineering process to test and improve their artistic, creative designs!
Make Icy Color-Changing Slime
This hands-on experience takes students on a journey through the fascinating world of chemistry and material science. Watch as ordinary ingredients transform into mesmerizing, color-changing slime, all while exploring the principles of temperature, chemical reactions, and the unique properties of polymers.
