Creepy Carrots
This is such a FUN challenge to do in the month of October! We started by reading the book, Creepy Carrots. It is adorable!
This Engineering Design Challenge is based on the picture book, Creepy Carrots!, by Aaron Reynolds:
Can your group create a fence that will contain a creepy carrot using the fewest number of craft sticks?
Materials: (per group)
Whole carrot (variety of sizes works best)
Sheet of cardboard (as a base)
Craft sticks
Tape and scissors
Yarn
