NJ Makers Day: Catapult Workshop with BCA's Spreading STEM
Get ready to launch into engineering fun this NJ Makers Day! Join us for a hands-on catapult building workshop designed for kids ages 4-12. Participants will learn about simple machines and basic engineering principles as they construct their own miniature catapults. We'll explore different designs, test our creations, and see who can launch their projectiles the furthest! This exciting program is co-hosted by Spreading STEM, a student-led non-profit organization founded by students of Bergen County Academies dedicated to bringing STEM education to underprivileged communities. Come discover the maker in you and celebrate the power of STEM! Registration required.
Can't make the workshop? No problem! Celebrate NJ Makers Day at home with our Grab & Go Catapult Kits! Available from Friday, March 21st through Sunday, March 23rd (while supplies last), these kits contain everything you need to build your own catapult. Pick one up in the Children's Room. One kit per child. Best for ages 4+.
