Fling Flyer Design Challenge
Fling Flyer Design Challenge
This badge explores lift and how airplanes fly. Brownies will learn about the physics of an airplane flying, and then design, build and test their own fling flyer.
Video 1: Understanding Airplanes
Play this video after the Brownies fly their paper airplanes for Activity 3: Learn About Forces that Affect Flight. Check the Brownies' understanding of the video by comparing the concepts in the video (force, lift and drag) to the paper airplanes they flew.
B- Fling Flyer- Info.movVideo 2: Airplanes in the Real World
An important part of learning new skills is seeing how they apply in the real world. Play this video at the end of the activity during the final wrap up and reflection activities, so Brownies can see how what they learned today is in use in the world around them.

Race Car Design Challenge
This badge explores cranes and machines. Brownies will learn about simple and complex machines before building a model crane to hold as much weight as possible.
Video 1: Force and Friction
Play this video for Activity 3: Learn How Design Can Affect Speed. Optional: use the toy car to demonstrate the concepts explained in the video by either pausing the video after each concept to explain or by reviewing force and friction after the video finishes. Then continue with Activity 4: Design and Build Your Race Car.

Leap Bot Design Challenge
Leap Bot Design Challenge
The badge explores potential and kinetic energy and the process of collecting and analyzing data. Brownies will build their own leap bot and then perform a series of tests, collecting and analyzing the data from them.
Video 1: Forces and Energy
Play this video to explain how forces and energy work in Activity 3: Learn About Springs. Check the girls' understanding by briefly explaining how forces and energy work in a spring before continuing with Activity 4: Build Your Leap Bot.
