About This Activity
3-6 year olds: Children become Santa’s little engineers! They explore how simple machines help make toys, build sturdy “elf shelves,” and create sleighs that can really move. Hands-on building and storytelling nurture curiosity, teamwork, and early STEM skills. 7-12 year olds: Students take on the role of workshop engineers to explore force, balance, and design. They experiment with gears and levers, construct mini structures, and test sleighs for speed and stability—applying real engineering principles to holiday fun.
