Candy Corn Catapults
Ready, aim, launch! Step into the world of ballistics and structural engineering in this high-energy, hands-on workshop. In Candy Corn Catapults, students become “siege engineers” as they design, build and calibrate their very own desktop launchers.
The mission? To successfully navigate the physics of flight and land a “harvest” of candy corn directly into a series of bubbling cauldrons. It’s a race against gravity and a test of architectural strength!
