SPLASH! - Water Balloons and STEM!


What kid doesn't LOVE water balloons?  Why not grab their attention by using water balloons to do some fun STEM challenges?


These challenges are the perfect way to cool off while you are learning!  They should be done outside on the playground.  We did these over a two-week period at the end of the school year!  They could also be done in those warm fall months as a way to get kids working together.  I am sure I will be doing a few of them during those HOT August days!

I am a big fan of the Bunch a Balloons!  They fill up quickly and easily and give you lots of balloons to work with for these challenges!  You can grab these in a lot of grocery stores or on Amazon-  https://amzn.to/4cygrwk


These water balloon challenges are a lot of fun!  They will get your kids designing, building, measuring, and thinking critically.  

There are five water balloon challenges, they can be purchased individually or in a bundle in my tpt store!  Here is the link in my tpt store!  The bundle can also be found in the "shop" section of this blog!

Get engineering!
