MAKE IT! Schedule
November 7: Balloon Art Inflate and twist special modeling balloons into various shapes, including animals and decorations. Learn standard animal patterns or create your own!
November 14: Spool Racers Explore the transformation of energy as you build a rubber-band powered spool racer. Learn how potential (stored) energy can be converted into kinetic (motion) energy through this simple-to-make toy racer — an early version of a wind-up car.
November 21: Marionette Puppets Marionettes are puppets with jointed limbs that are moved from above by manipulation of attached strings or wires. We’ll create simple-to-make marionettes out of paper cutouts and learn to control their movements.
November 28: No Make It! Thursday activity tonight. Enjoy your Thanksgiving holiday!
