About this Event
Kids will explore STEM concepts while designing and building their own marble maze. Through hands-on experimentation, they will learn how gravity, momentum, friction, and resistance affect movement. Using creativity, problem-solving, and engineering design skills, children will create an exciting maze, testing and improving their designs to achieve the best results.
