How strong can paper be? Let’s find out!At this hands-on engineering activity, children will experiment with building bridges using paper folded in different ways. Kids will test their designs, add weight, make changes, and try again — just like real engineers do.
Through playful trial and error, children will:
Explore how shape and structure affect strength
Learn that the same material can perform very differently depending on how it’s used
Practice problem-solving, creativity, and persistence
This activity is open-ended and accessible for a wide range of ages, with plenty of opportunities for experimenting, redesigning, and discovering “aha!” moments along the way.
Come build, test, and see which paper bridge can hold the most!
Included with the price of admission
