Team Building
Marshmallow Towers
It doesn’t take high-tech gadgets to spark big ideas: just spaghetti, tape, and marshmallows are enough to set kids’ creativity in motion. As towers rise and bridges take shape, kids discover how much teamwork it takes to plan, test, and adapt.
What makes STEM activities so engaging is the mix of science and silliness. It’s engineering, creativity, and cooperation all rolled into one sticky, spaghetti-filled package.
