This is a collection of fun Maker activities that I can pull out and do with very little prep and limited materials.
Marble Drop Challenge: Using only a few dominoes, a sheet of paper, a marble, and a pencil, drop the marble and knock the pencil to the floor without letting the marble touch the pencil.
Spaghetti and Marshmallow Challenge: Using sticks of dry spaghetti and marshmallows, build the tallest freestanding structure you can.
Make a vehicle for a character in a book. Gingerbread Man?
Make a house for the Three Little Pigs.
Keva Planks challenges: Make the tallest/shortest tower you can with x number of blocks. Make a ramp for a ball to roll as far as possible.
Make a den for a bear.
Make a trap for a leprechaun.
