Toy Bridge STEM Project Idea
Here’s a fun and easy, NO PREP STEM project idea that is simple enough for Kindergartners, but still great for first and second graders! If the idea of a science project with no preparation at all sounds good to you, you’ve come to the right place! Here is the idea: all the children have to do is build a bridge with whatever toys, blocks, or objects you happen to have on hand. That’s it- nice and simple! Just have them build a bridge out of anything you’ve got. No gluing, cutting, stapling, painting, or taping. Just build, build, build until you decide that they are done! Then snap a few photos of the fun, take it apart and put it away! (Check out a STEM bridge building project I did with my class last year here. Example below!) Bridge building is a classic STEM activity, but can be tricky for little ones when done with craft sticks and other materials. However, it dawned on me that these kids could probab...
