Dream Builders: Things in Motion, Science for Kids

How do things move—and why? In this Dream Builders session, middle school students will dive into the science of motion and explore hands-on engineering activities that bring concepts like force, balance, and energy to life. From building and testing simple machines to experimenting with moving creations, students will see science in action while creating projects they can be proud of.

Schedule
