Maker Challenge - Marble Run
Maker Challenge - Marble Run
Running up the wall?! How about a marble run?
Design and build a marble (or any small ball) run. The sky (and ceiling) is the limit!
Try only using materials that were not made to be marble runs. Here's a list to start brainstorming with:
- Toilet/Paper Towel rolls ( if you have them!)
- Tracks from other toys
- Popsicle sticks
- Cardboard
- And so much more!
How long can you make a marble run go? Can you build it up a wall or around a corner? Can you get the marble to 'set' anything off? Could you set up obstacles for the marble?
Maker Challenge - Snack Dispenser
Maker Challenge - Snack Dispenser
While at home sometimes I find that my snacks disappear faster than I think they should, do you find that yours do too?
Try your hand at making a snack dispenser.
Think about the size and shape of your treat and how much you would like to dispense at a time.
Some starting ideas of items can you use to create your dispenser
- Lego
- Recyclables
- Cups
- Straws
- Popsicle sticks
- and plenty of other items ( just don’t use a preexisting dispenser)
Extra Challenge: Can you automate the dispenser somehow? How can you program something to dispense your treat?
Maker Challenge - Home Design
Maker Challenge - Home Design
Can you design the ultimate tiny home? You can use the video for inspiration but don’t feel that you need to use all of the constraints. You can draw your house, design it on the computer or even build a model.
