Spring STEM Challenge MaterialsĪs with any STEM activity, I encourage you to use materials that you already have. A printable to attach to the nest is also included.

The egg is light so they have to blow on it to gently get it back to its home/nest. It can also add to the fun and engagement if you tell children to imagine that they found an egg and they need to get it safely back into the nest, without touching it. You will blow the egg, either with a straw or your mouth, to move it from one end to the other. It cannot fall off the table, so your path must keep the egg within its boundaries, but also allow it to move to the end.

Use the materials to create a path for your egg to move from the ‘Start’ to the ‘Nest’ at the other end. These challenges can be used year round! Spring STEM Activity – The Challengeįor this STEM activity, the challenge is simple.
